European Tour Diary (Zurich, Feiburg, Luxembourg)

Posted by The Dot Hongs on March 5, 2010 at 1:06 pm.

Our first day off after 10 shows in a row was spent driving to Zürich, Switzerland. It was a nice change of pace to step out of Germany for a bit and see such a fairy tale based town. I spent my morning walking around, shopping, and eating fine food. Our show was jammed packed in [...]

It was in late September when I received the news. Slightly rainy out, and the weather was still warm. I ate lunch, and discussed the future plans with the label for 2010. My initial idea was to may be work on a EP and keep touring til’ 2011 before ever making a follow up disc. [...]

European Tour Diary Part 1 (Amsterdam):

When I saw America last I was crossing off my “to do” list, working on new material, finishing season 4 of “The Wire”, working and running around like a maniac. I said my Goodbyes over beer with friends, and spent the afternoon eating at my favorite Pizza spot with my best friend. Cab driver Mr. [...]

Leaving The Country

Posted by The Dot Hongs on February 8, 2010 at 9:12 am.

On February 17th 2010, I will embark on a mission I haven’t been able to accomplish or yet discover. I already sense a strong feeling of enlightenment, and perspective change on this trip. Kevin Devine was kind enough to let me tour in his band in the United States of America the past two years, [...]
