Congrats 'SKRA! Finally they get a good crowd reaction (funny the way it works in this town, good bands are unpopular, while the watered down sing-a-long crap is praised. Bah-waaaa?!?) too bad they had to travel across the continent to get it. Love you guys.

I'm not sure if we are going to do the up island thing right away when we get back any more. We may take a few weeks to collect ourselves when we get back before doing it. - Tue, 11 May 2004 5:32am

ISKRA are wimpy losers, true story. Boo-hoo the tour wasn't perfect, so we need a year off to collect our(totallyhurtin)selves. I hope the singers have a new place to live when they get back, cause it sure as hell isn't with BWD! Eat a fuck losers!

P.S. the Mito hate you too. - Tue, 11 May 2004 5:58am

toledo fucking rules! I'm really getting to like it here. I'm thinking of moving the family, getting a job. its amazing how comfortable you get....

well, we at least met some helpful people.they buy us alcohol and feed us---we're kinda like pets more than a band these days!

we are thinking of booking it to montreal rather than play one or two shows on the east coast. we'll make it there in time for the anarchist bookfair and hopefully weasel into a couple of cool shows(i.e. inepsy, born dead icons on the 16th, or the uphill battle show). In any case we'll be drinking beer with francophones, which is always cool.Gotta get out of the US, eh.

Hope all is well in Victoria. Take care y'all(oh yeah don't be fucking surprised if you hear hints of yankee accents in next time we speak to you. we expect you guys to beat that shit out of us upon our return.

thanks to you all, even our mortal enemies.

Born Dead Icons! Cool! There should be a reggae version of this band called Born Dread Icons. Korn-fed Nikons. Scott - how's your armpit doing? Not playing the east coast? Were any of those dates gonna be the Cabbage Collective in Philly? I don't know if it's even still going. Outdrink some Quebecois with Maudits for me. - Wed, 12 May 2004 4:08pm

Hey, did you know that ISKRA means "bad luck" in Russian?

I jest, we finally got a vehicle, we're getting out of here after we play another show for the same promoter who put on the first show (a week ago) in Toledo. May I add he's about the nicest guy I've ever met and everyone should tour through here and play the Blackstone.

Montreal, here we come. - Fri, 14 May 2004 7:25am
