Tour Diary

Johnny Foreigner Tour Diary '09 - Part Six
Johnny Foreigner Tour Diary '09 - Part Six
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater July 6th, 2009

Johnny Foreigner are still on the road, and still writing and filming tour diaries for the readers of Drowned in Sound - that's you lot, by the way.

It's been a long and emotional ride for the three-piece, ploughing through much of the country on their musical escapades, and cataloguing every waking moment for you with video camera.

Catch up with the previous tour diaries below. It's a bit like watching Lost, because nothing will make sense in Part 6, 5 or even 4 if you haven't watched the previous episodes.

Part 1 & 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5

And so, here is part six from Kelly.



Hello.

This here is the latest tour diary by johnny foreigner, age 3 and a half. This is the 6th part.

In a bid to be vaguely creative and witty, I wrote a bunch of haikus to describe our escapades in liverpool and york. However, since i lack both creativity and wit, these ended up being COMPLETELY WHACK.

Instead, here's the cast that have thus far starred in our tour diary. Thanks go to those not in our band for letting us film their faces.

Roll credits:

Lex: dude with front-mullet; stoned
Jr: fro'd; stoned
Kel: Question Asker
Christ: looks like the son of God; also goes by the name Lea Room
Martin: does sound. Swears.
Vicky: you'll see her on the next td singing a popular hymm
Tex: does merch and funny accents. Drinks all the beer
Tubelord aka Jo (funny dances), Sean (he pulls serious faces and lets me win at chess),
Dave (I prefer to call him Dan, but in a shouty alan partridge style)
Calories aka Pete (kisses boys), Tom (doesn't interview well), John
Copy Haho aka Joe (doesn't mind hanson), Richard, Stuart (can jump over one leg), Rikki
Gareth (manager extraordinaire, devours icecream in unconventional ways)

There's a pig and a horse too, but that's just Jo Tube and me fucking about.

actually, here's a haiku for you:

Something I Have Learnt: Haikus Are Pointless And Crap. Thank You And Good Bye.
