And Off I Go Again!!

So after a couple of days off in Sydney it was off to London for rehearsals with Babyshambles. I'd heard all the horrors about Pete Doherty but i have to say he has been nothing but easy to deal with and has been on stage on time every night and been very professional with everyone involved in the tour.

Im in Nottingham today on a day off trying to find Robin Hood but not having much luck, so i went a got a haircut instead.

Nice.....I know!! : )
The shows have been pretty good and is a big change from doing shows with The Killers as its a much more subtle lighting show with a lot of video projection as well.


We've already been to London, Manchester, Newcastle, Brighton, Bournemouth, Wembley, Birmingham and have 2 shows left in Nottingham and then Glasgow before i head home for a few days.
As you see from the last pic. We have Union jack flags and British Navy Standard Flags that fall during the last song. After a couple of shows the band decided they were a little too clean cut looking and handed me a scissors and had me go to work on them to make them look a little more weathered and tatty.

I did get a few weird looks from people as they watched the only Irish person on the tour cutting up a British Flag in the middle of Londons Wembley Arena!! I wondered if it qualified as treason??

Anywho!! Im off home this weekend to hopefully tie up the purchase of my new house before heading to Los Angeles for a show i'll tell you all bout soon enough!!

Do you like my house??


Talk Soon!!

Hooray for being the Irish dude cutting up the Union Jacks in Wembley! Bet that's the first time that's happened.
