We all got a surprisingly good sleep on the ferry, and checked into our hotel. I took a walk to the Botanical Gardens, had a brief nap on a bench (what, a bum?), then worked more on the frottage drawing I started in Hamburg. The festival was quite fun, and we played a really good set. What a relief to feel like Mission of Burma after our rather weak performance at Malmo. Negative Approach and Chelsea Light Moving were highlights of the evening.

June 30: Yeah, this was my pub. Garage Club in London was a bit spiffied up since we last played there (2002), but all was good. Fire-folks showed up and helped sell merch. Cool.

July 1: Dinner on the beach in Bristol w/Pete and Ozak (our driver this round). The Haunt had an early 80's NYC vibe, not super-well attended, but fun. The 2-star hotel we stayed at deserved only a 1-star. When Pete and I finally got a room with two beds, Pete noticed water dripping down from the ceiling lamp in the bathroom. 45 minutes later they'd found us another room. Zero-star hotel bummer.

July 2nd: We all thought you DROVE through the Chunnel to get to the continent. Nope. You drive your car onto a train, then read a book to avoid the non-scenery. My current book, a real doozy, too: "The Origin of Consciousness in the Break Down of the Bicameral Mind", by Julian Jaynes. Very interesting take on language as the forming pulse of civilization, and the curious way the brain interacts w/language, creating Gods, etc......

July 2nd: This is the hotel we stayed at in Amsterdam - Summer Jazz Hotel on the Canal. The Winston Kingdom show was the best gig we've ever had in Amsterdam - great crowd, and despite my barely being able to hear my guitar, I was at least able to see my fingers and deduce that I hadn't made any major errors.
