I'm leaving for R.E.M. tomorrow. But since I have some free time, I changed my avatar to something less dark and with the new Warwick, and I changed my nickname to Iggy, which is the "approved touring nickname". Iņaki takes far too long for me to teach to all my stagehands every day!!
I've also started posting again on my touring blog, the link is my signature. I try to post every couple of days, or whenever interesting stuff happens. It's a pretty honest crew's view of any tour I do.
Anyways, I'll try and come online often, but if not, I'll see you all in a month!

I hope this isn't just another prop to occupy your time. 
Will you be playing Twister and Risk while on tour?
Do you think Michael Stipe will be keeping an eye on you?
No fear, cavalier, renegade and steer clear ...
hope you feel fine!
Sorry, we cover a few R.E.M. songs and I handle lead vocals on them. Couldn't help myself! Sounds like a very cool gig.

Great blog - looking forward to longer posts from you. You have a gift for very descriptive writing.
btw, I think the guy with the bag of ice had the girl's shoes, though I could be wrong...

Well the band is rehearsing right now, it had been a while since I heard "Loosing My Religion"!!
They're a good band, really solid.
Tomorrow we do our first show =)

Thanks for the pic. Is that the type of amp where the light comes up from behind the grill?
What goes on the space between the amps? liquids?

As far as a I know, there are no lights from behind the grill! I'm not sure, I guess water and towels fit great between them. Once the show is on the go, I'm sitting on the side monitoring my racks, so I don't see much of the stage.
We have a party a Mike Mills' house tonight, hopefully that'll be fun!!
