'If patience had a band, I'd be her biggest fan..'

We had a rehearsal last night which always makes me smile a lot the next day, for a number reasons but there are two main reasons.. Firstly, we work hard in rehearsals but are often prone to going off on tangents with ideas and jokes as I am sure most bands do. Last night we did this a lot, and we were falling about in a couple of great 'We're sooo funny!!' moments, so flashbacks to that have been keeping me amused all morning. Secondly though, and more importantly, the more we rehearse, the more I feel that we are getting to where we need to be with everything to do with the band. Musically, we are working on newer songs and it's all sounding great as far as I'm concerned. We will have a much more interesting set by the tour and people who haven't seen us for quite a while will probably find it strange because we have been heading in a more ambitiously rocking (Post-rock maybe? I'm still not sure what that means..) direction. I love it because when I sit down in my bunker to write new stuff I feel like we have no constraints as to what we can play. That freedom is what I think music should be.

Roll on the tour!
