Cheap thrill, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. Mars made me go jet-skiing. It was probably the funniest thing we’ve done on this tour. Screaming and trying to throw each other off with the wake. Terrible. One day the inner-adult will shine through. Shame we didn’t get the whole band out really; though it ...

Actual photo from the space station., originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. Sadly missed the Menil Museum today – Houston is just too dang big to handle in one day and we awoke in the center of the financial district which is pretty dead on a weekend. So i just wandered the block, got ...
It Goes On, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. We decide to hang at the Sportsmen’s Lodge hotel all day and try and recuperate from the last few days of geographic confusion and hearing loss with a spot of B-list star watching by the exceptional pool, and perhaps a margarita. All too quick its ...
IMG_2168, originally uploaded by sleepydoll. LA is a trip every time. I woke up on the bus couch around 7.30 as we hit the grapevine. Still feels like home here in California. Andi get’s her first and maybe only night in a tour bus bunk – it’s an odd thing to adjust to but she ...
Ahh, the hometown. Well, not quite Nevada City but i think of SF as the hometown on the road. Tonight was the best show of the tour for me; the loudest, most enthusiastic crowd stuffed with friends, beautiful venue, great sound and a hot, sweaty set! Some very cool video here! More detail later – ...
My best day so far; great venue, great show, beautiful weather, and i get to see my Andi and my nephews all on the same day. Feels like coming home to be in this city. I’ve spent so much time here with family that it’s almost odd to be here in this capacity. And to ...
Furs / Mondays, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. It’s early and the great plains are beginning to emerge out the window of the bus. Today is our second longest drive of the tour; Milwaukee,WI to Boulder, CO. Darren’s staying awake at the wheel, i slept a good five hours but i don’t want ...
First Night, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. First night of the tour. It can be rough but it wasn’t. Energy was up, audience was great, the mistakes were few and far between, everyone was pretty much owning it. The Vic is a cool looking old theatre – my favourite kind. Opening with Love ...
Awake after not enough sleep at 8. I meet Paul (Garisto – drums with Furs back in the 80s) at the hotel breakfast. He’s freaking a little over being back in. I’m just freaking a little about being in. I’ll miss seeing Frank this tour but he’s a cool guy and is more original lineup… ...
