First UK tour is complete!

Well what can I say? The Dunes rocked the crowds across the pond! We played 8 shows in 14 days including a radio interview on the BBC and a photo shoot as well. I never knew what to expect being on tour in the UK but I did expect there would be lots of drinking. And believe me there was! We were so busy everyday with the travelling and constant lugging of our gear it made it very tire some for us at times but at the end of the day when I stepped on that stage with my fellow Dunes it made it all worth it! We experienced the vibes around London when there were the bomb scares going on. Kind of an unsettling feeling when you're there. We experienced missed flights and eaten bank cards in machines and spebt loads of money.
Our short time in Edinborough was an incredible experince for me. Everyone in England said the weather would be worse but it actually was quite nice. Sunny and warm days. We played a show in downtown Edinborough at a popular venue called Whistle Binkies where just a few years back Travis themselves graced the stage. Pretty cool let me tell ya! So many stories in such a short time that I don't even no where to start. One thing I do know for sure is that The Dunes are stronger, tighter, and are better friends now than they ever were. Not to blow our own whistles but if you come to see us July 20th at The Rivoli in Toronto, you are in for a real treat!!!! Looking forward to the next show. Over and out!
Peace,
John Boy
