Your love keeps lifting me higher….

Posted in Uncategorized on August 31, 2008 by johnnytruantband

I just woke up with a hangover, last night Oliver and myself paid a visit to our friend Hayley’s place and ate burgers and salad on her roof terrace while drinking far far far too much booze, I can’t remember when Olly left but I definitely left a little too late and had a lot of trouble walking home. Good times, thanks Hayley.

Today I don’t know what to do with myself. Somebody help me.

Over

Posted in Uncategorized on August 30, 2008 by johnnytruantband

Last night was the final night of our headline tour around Ontario, we played Toronto and it was awesome to see so many people, friends and strangers, come down to see us. I tried really hard to get drunk by saving all my drink tickets and getting the barmaid to put all my alloted shots of gin into one glass and make me a huge gin and tonic but it didn’t work and i stayed pretty much sober all night long in Sneaky Dees talking to all sorts of people. It was sad to say goodbye to the guys from Straight Reads The Line as I felt like I was just getting to know them, but I’m sure our paths will cross again….

Today I went and hung out with my friends Ben and McKinley, they’ve moved here from England recently, we ate dinner together and they went bowling, I passed on the bowling to walk home in the rain listening to the Vessels album Ben gave me. It was definitely a good choice, the record is amazing – myspace.com/vesselsband

Sweet.

Stuart and mosquitos.

Posted in Uncategorized on August 27, 2008 by johnnytruantband

I just woke up, well gotten woken up by Stuart. Let me tell you a thing or two about Stuart, hes not human.

He was born on a farm in south america and raised by various farm yard creatures, they fed him nothing but coffee and cigarettes, he eats lke a mathmatician, snores like a fucking bore and yawns like a pig, to top this off when he sneezes he sounds like donald duck, its tough sleeping next to stu, id rather sleep in a bed of stinging nettles whilst getting bummed by a pack of wolfs.

 

To add to this, i have been bitten about 600 times by mosquitos. Ive nearly torn most of the flesh from my legs and arms in a bid to releive the itchyness, im not sure whether id rather sleep next to stu again or just be a buffet for the little fuckers. 

Stuart hunter, one in a million.
