Last night, I was in Fribourg, Switzerland at a venue called Fri-S…

Fanatic! Hello from Dusseldorf. We’re 30 shows into the year and so far, all’s well. Every afternoon before the show at night, I’m in a backstage area working on upcoming radio shows. In a touring year I have to work ahead. There’s lots of good new releases I just got and some that will be out later this year I was lucky enough to get copies of tha…

Fanatic. In Berlin, Germany. Happy Fanatic spring! I know it’s not spring officially but as far as my weather vane is concerned, spring has done sprung.

Fanatic! I’m presently in the backstage area of the Kuppelhallen in Stavanger, Norway. The town is a postcard. Blue sky, water, boats, mountains.

The sh…

Fanatic. Hello from Bratislava, Slovakia. I think this might be my first time in this city. I searched all my show records and can’t find any proof I’ve been here before.

Fanatic! It’s late on Friday night and I’m writing these notes now as I have a long day of travel waiting for me. I’m Iceland bound to start almost two months of shows.

On his road trip around Australia, Henry Rollins’ finds when asking people about what tough means to them the conversation always turns to the environment.
