Well what a fun few days!

We have just returned to Paris after being out on the road to Rennes and Rouen. Rennes was cool we partied with some guys from a local horror/psychobilly band called Banane Metalik who had just returned from playing in Hollywood. Went to this crazy surreal street that looked like it was built by MC Escher! Meet heaps of cool people and drunk until the next morning when we left to Rouen...

The ride took ages because of everyone returning from their holidays and big jams from the toll stations, we finally got to Rouen and the venue was this closet sized punk rock bar called Le Prado one block from the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Rouen, after finding out the PA speakers were busted and sourcing out alternatives we rocked out about 15 songs in what must have been 40° heat!!!

Afterwards we went to the house of the owner of the venue and we had this fantastic home cooked french meal, by this stage everyone was pretty shattered so we went to the flat of the punk rock barman from Le Prado and after some brief entertainment by a bat trapped inside the house we crashed...

Got up this morning and drove back to Paris where we well spend the next few days chilling and sightseeing before heading to Germany!

Love to all!

Wolfgang, Jimmy, Matt, and Ben.



Black Chrome lurking in alleys is a worldwide trend...



Aïna and Karine at the entry to 'Liquid Alley' were we hung out and drunk and watched some cops cuff some street thieves who we'd been watching rip people off all afternoon!



Our host Laurent in Renne.



Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Rouen



One of the greatest bars in the world!



Figured we might play some songs since we were here...





New friends.
