Later dudes!

Yo family,
I am just about to leave to go on a road tour of the United States of America with Aussie rock heroes, The Drones, and up and coming yanks Band Of Horses.
Our one month tour will take me to many cities I've always dreamed of going, as America is the birthplace of many of my favourite artists and musicians. It will also take me to a bunch of flea ridden crap holes full of red necks!
We are staying at the Chelsea hotel in New York, possibly in the actual room where Sid Vicious stabbed his girlfriend Nancy to death! We have a whole day and night off there which is so exciting, because New York is total music and literary Mecca to me. The reason we have a night off there is Band Of Horses are playing on the Conan O'Brien show! That should be fun.
I don't think we will be staying anywhere cool when we go to Boise, Idaho or Pontiac, Michigan, but when we go to sweet home Chicago, Illinois I am going to Muddy Waters house and in Seattle, Washington we are going to the Jimmy Hendrix museum.
Most of the places we go will just be road houses and bars in the middle of nowhere. We are actually playing a show in Fargo, North Dakota, for anyone who has seen the Cohen Brothers film, and I am pretty sure a whole lotta nothin happens there most of the time. San Fran, L.A., ummmm..lots of places I've never heard of such as Bozeman, Montana (there could be lynching that night), anyway lots and lots of seedy bars and and truck stops - hooray! Yes, it's certainly a dream come true for me, so all those teachers who told me in high school that hanging out behind the tuck shop smoking ciggies with the cool kids would get me nowhere were wrong, wrong, wrong!! I was actually in training for my glorious career as a.... cool person! The pay is minimal and the hours are long but the rewards are.....umm... really rewarding.
Catch you on the flip side..
