Salut,

July started very well with Beauregard Festival in Normandy, felt super cool to play as the sun was going down and spirits were going up. The crowd was enthusiastic, grooving all along… And we got our #2 panty thrown at us! This one was far better, though, with autographs, drawings, colours and all. We still need to fine-tune our festival set, which song should start the shows, for eg.? (if you have an idea, let us know). The aftershow party was boring, actually there was nothing to do, we were looking for food as Pete D was playing solo numbers & covers, alone on a big stage. It just seemed surreal: he covered Neil Young’s “The Needle And The Damage Done” (!!!!!), while young girls screaming at him! This guy’s either a total fake or a genius (in marketing). He’s both, I guess. (I’m envious)

( after watching some of thses pictures, a question comes to my mind : are we the curliest band in the world?)

Next, we’ll be at La Rochelle for Les Francofolies, on July 10th. A French band singing in English can be booked on that festival? Oui! Halelujah!

Then, we’ll drive back to Paris’ airport to catch a plane to Taiwan to perform at Hohaiyan Rock Festival (July 12th), we’ll be back in France on the 16th. Looks like we’ll have a bit of time to spend some short vacation in Taiwan.

After a few days off, we’ll be at Vireux-Wallerand for Festi-Meuse on July 19th, and finally in Grenoble for Festival Cabaret Frappé, where the audience watches you from a swimming pool. sounds like fun.

A new show has been added at Tokyo Duo Exchange on August 6th, prior to the Summer Sonic shows. Great.

hope you’re all doing well,

bises
