For all those who can’t join a band for whatever reason and have to live the rock and roll lifestyle vicariously through the words and works of others, shout hurrah! Quietly, or the neighbours will hear.
As part of our quest to provide a different kind of music news n reviews website (and to wind up Stone Gods fans – blimey, I only said I was horribly disappointed with the album, I didn’t wish them dead…) here is part one of our exclusive tour blog from Leeds/Leicester post-rockers, Glissando and Her Name Is Calla. I have a horrible feeling that it’s going to go a bit Bad Wisdom.
Day one.
Leeds – The Pack Horse
First night done. It went fairly well, though as with the trains tour last year, the first night threw up a few little problems. It transpires that Tom is either sexy or sexist, we’re not quite sure what Sophie said. Either way, he accidentally got into an interview earlier where he alleged certain activities regarding the two girls joining us on this tour. They might regret climbing into the van in the morning.
The drive up from Leicester was characterised by traffic jams, which bring their own fun due to the close proximity of fellow motorists. Some of them were nice looking, some weren’t, but we don’t discriminate. (Apart from Adam, who did). Anyway, we’re now back at Ellie’s talking about gang rape while Pete shows us videos from the trains tour. York tomorrow.
The website for the venue gives the impression that the audience will be seated in rows. Rock! Right, I’m off to the van to get cosy and watch Cloverfield (newly stolen off Ellie’s computer). Oh, one last thing, if you live in Newcastle and have floor space for five or six people, please email us.
Thanks.
Thom.
