We're going to France!

Bonjour! Because PJ is originally from Switzerland and can speak French, we figured we'd go back to France and do a week of shows there. Linguistically, it just makes sense to go there, rather than, say, Iceland, where we would struggle to communicate in anything beyond the usual arm-waving and pointing that I am used to.

That said, I would love to go to Iceland, but we can't take the van and I don't think they do ferries to Iceland, at least not for any reasonable kind of money. Anyway, we're not going to Iceland (yet) we're going to France because we can take the van there and PJ can speak French and I love cheese.

That said, I don't really like anything except your classic yellow cheeses like Cheddar, a bit of Gouda, Mozzerella, you know, the normal ones. So we're not going to France for cheese, but because we can take the van there, PJ can speak French and because Dan likes some cheeses.

I'll tell you why we're not going to France though - toll roads! Too many expensive roads just to get from one city to the next. French drivers must be so pissed they have to waste all their money driving around only to find themselves in central Paris and a complete lack of road markings and signs.

Anyway, toll roads aside, we are going to France because we can take the van, PJ can speak French, Bondy likes some cheeses and we can tolerate the toll roads because it's beautiful there and playing shows in France has always been AWESOME FUN for us.

We're going with French band "Zombies Are Pissed" (about the toll roads no doubt) and we'll be there from the 7th to the 12th October and it's looking like this at the moment:

7th October - Paris (venue TBC)
8th October -  Dijon@Deep Inside
9th October - Lyon (Venue TBC)
10th October - Still TBC
11th October - Still TBC
12th October - Caen@Bar Laplace With RVIVR.

If anyone wants to put us on in October on the 10th and 11th that would be awesome, just get in touch.

Until then, check out Joe the last time we were in France. Phwoooar.
