Harbour
Things are looking up.
I thought I should include this shot because nobody seems to ever publish this angle of the bridge. I wonder why.

These Were The Good Old Days
Welcome (back) to my airport life. Notice the “Hungry Jack’s” logo. Google it, because there’s a funny story about that guy vs. Burger King.
Aaahhhh the good old days… were about three hours ago.
Aaahhh the good old days about two hours and fifty-nine minutes ago.
Another hot international travel moment. Very exciting. This is gonna be my view for another hour or more.
I promise I’ll take a shot of tomorrow’s crowd in Sydney.

Pellegrinis
In my humble opinion this is the coolest place in Australia. Italian bar/cafe that hasn’t changed in decades. It feels like WWII just ended and the Italians are making cakes for everyone. The guy who I believe is the owner has the wildest accent I’ve ever heard, its Aussie-Italian. I find if I sit there and talk to him for a half hour or so I can mimic it well enough. I’ll hafta film myself doing it next time cuz he wasn’t in today but ya know who was? Pete Garrett, the singer for Midnight Oil.

Airport, Hotel, Airport
This is what a lot of my life is lookin like on this tour. Airport, then hotel, then airport.
They finally have Kombucha down under. Hurray, I won’t be getting cancer on this tour….phew.
If you’re in Australia, this stuff is awesome. The ginger is the best one, by the way. The company sent us a bunch in Perth cuz they couldn’t believe we had it on our rider, and now they’re gonna send it to every show. Bless em!

Adelaide
Just arrived. Would love to get out and see the city but I got MSG’d in the Melbourne airport so I’m unnaturally lethargic compounded by mild stomach cramps. Something called “vegetable noodle” turned out to be “sugary syrup with MSG noodle”. Guess I shoulda consulted Engrish.com before I ordered.

Leaving Perth
Well our tour officially began last night. It’s now Wednesday and we’ve been here (having an amazing time) since Friday or Saturday. I can’t remember. We came down early because we hadn’t played together since mid-December. Turns out after being a band for 17 years it doesn’t take us long to get back to “smokin” and “shit-hot”. We absolutely slayed, and that includes playing a new song called “The WOW! Signal”. Type those words into wiki and have a little read, it’s pretty cool. The song won’t be there, but it will be on our forthcoming album, which will be titled THIS MACHINE. (Sorry, I couldn’t think up any more goofy ones, and anyway it’s time to get serious about the rock).
This photo has been my view for what feels like an entire chapter of my life here but now its time to go. Kinda sad to leave.
