Hello. Hope you've all dined on rivers of chocolate over the last few weeks. Happy Belated Easter - if you celebrated it. A brief update as follows and we hope it finds you well - wherever you are and whatever you're doing. We're currently in Berlin and have been back here since February - we came home right after our brief but busy time in the UK. It should be said that time spent

Well well - here we are, in a space and time called 2010.That used to sound like such a far off place. A befitting title for a god-awful and beastly sci-fi movie surely. Can you believe its nearly the end of January already?! We can't.It must be said, having a purpose to your location makes a hell of a difference to your head-space wouldn't you say? The exception to this rule is when you just

Well here we are and its all about where we've been on this one.Yes - the end of our first European summer of touring is just about upon us. I guess I'm writing this because it has been nothing less than amazing - oh, and hard work too of course! A range of experiences have been had. A drop of sweat into the mechanics of the pedals leading to everything going astray, a police escort on bikes

Everyone - please meet Kadir (the man with the mo). He's pleased to meet you too!We met him not long after our move to Berlin. The apartment we moved into, lucky for us, is above a cafe and Kadir was, and still is, working behind the counter serving up food with his charm and smile.Our grasp on the German language was limited at the time (an understatement) and he quickly realised we weren't

Mayness is the start of madness because we are back on the walkabout - trailing through the bushes & the rivers - with the animals of old.

This really takes the cake doesn't it?To award the Medal of Freedom (the highest civilian honour in the US) to Australia's ex Prime-Minister, John Howard, is a farce is it not?Stephen Kenny who was David Hick's lawyer summed it up by saying Howard was the only world leader outside the US who supported the imprisonment of people at Guantanamo Bay and failed in ensuring David Hicks received a fair

Goodbye Berlin - hello to the autobahn. After not more than two weeks of putting down roots in Berlin we were bounding out the door of our apartment and into the van. Our first foray into the venues of Europe was beginning under the guise of support act to Belgium band, Deus. Five records in and they have a devoted fan-base throughout this part of the world and, in particular, the cities we

Where does one start? It has been a while, to say the least, since we last spoke our from our rented piece of the blogoshpere. But, sitting around idle we have not. We’ve been penning new songs, growing into old haircuts, dancing in the discothèques of Sydney and enjoying the clatter of one’s own pots and pans.All that has well and truly come to an end though. We have thrown ourselves around the
