:lol: :lol: :lol:

No, nothing at all like that! :D The rugby ball is for the Rugby World Cup being held in France, Mike my partner does VJing and video installations for his day job.

We'd love to come to Canada! We just haven't established the contacts there to get enough gigs to make it viable (we fly with about 100 kilos of gear) but hopefully one day... We are going to be coming thru the States and Japan again in late Nov/early Dec, so ya never know... if you have any possible hook-ups for gigs, please drop me a PM.

cheers

What's this Earthdance business in NorCal? It would be a damn shame to miss this since it looks like I live in the general area of the only place you are playing in the US. Go us!

I really hate when people say Northern California is a bunch of weekend neo-hippies that have tech jobs and drive Hummers during the week only to be presented with a link to a festival in Northern California that is going to be attended by a bunch of weekend neo-hippies that have tech jobs and drive Hummers during the week.

How long are you guys going to be in town?

Man, you could totally fit inside one of their gear cases with your laptop and controller. I'm still waiting for you to hit the states and I think the time is now!

Hey guys it's FaX here in Melbourne.
Still can't login under my old account or access my user details so here I am under my real name. :cry:
What time does the gig at the Corner hotel start and can you book or reserve tickets ???
Missed the last Melbourne gig due to shitty health and would live to see you guys perform live this time.
Thanks for the heads up.
I haven't been out in a LONG time so this should be fun for an old fart like me :D.

paddy - no SF dates for reals?? or not yet? check out the DNA lounge, perfect for you two to play in. I'd trek up north but they lost me at 'jam bands' I don't know if I can stay high long enough to get down with that.
