Sheffield/London
So the sheffield show was real good, and the stage was about 6ft up in the air and real long, but i have better things to talk about. After the show we packed everything away and took it all out to our van, as soon as we got everything ready to go in the van, some lad who worked at the venue told us we had a flat tyre. We pondered on what to do for a while and then came to the conclusion that the best idea would be to call the AA, so we did, the man arrived swiftly and we thought we'd be on our way within half an hour. To start he couldn't get the spare wheel off since it was pretty much stuck to the van with rust. He then tried to fix the puncture, but it was the actual valve that was broken so there wasn't anything he could do, the only option was to sleep in the van. So parslow went with attack attack to a travel lodge and tom went to his girlfriends in Nottingham, then Bobby, Gay Bryan, Webbo, Ben and myself stayed in the van! At first it didn't seem that bad, we went to a local pizza shop and got some food on the merch money, then we all got a comfy seat in the van and watched Role Models on webbos tiny laptop, it was actually real good and we drank the free crate of san miguel attack attack gave us! As a few of us grew tired me, ben and bryan crashed out in the back seats and floor leaving webbo and bobby to drink til the early hours of the morning, then we had a little swop. I got so uncomforatble that i had to get out of the van, so i went for a walk around what was a really nice city, it took me ages to find the local mcdonalds to buy hash browns though, but as soon as i did find it and brought ten for me and the lads, i got a phonecall to run back to the van becuase the AA man came to pick us up! We got in what seemed like the biggest truck ever and went to a garage, they tried to snack us and tell us we needed various things done to the van but we reclined and got our valve fixed and then we went to london! The show in london was also real good.

Dundee
So we got to dundee after one of the worst drives of my life, it wasn't really long, but i probably had the worst hang over of my life! When we finally got there the venue was a real good size and seemed like a nice place, excluding its lack of shower, which i really needed! We got taken into the dressing room which was a pretty dodgy room, but it was filled with bread, coke and sweet cumberland sausage flavour crisps, we were also told that the building was broken into the night before. The people who broke in got in through a door and smashed a whole through a wall to get into the office with all the money etc in, it was fucking wild, looking back i probably should of taken a photo!
The show was pretty good, the room was full of excited kids, who wanted to buy shirts and cd's wich was good! After the show we went to a travel lodge in Carlisle and attack attack let some of us sleep in the room with them, tom, ben, webbo and myself all slept in the van, i had a great night sleep, but i think tom slept for about an hour, which kind of sucked.Next is sheffield, which is a staggering 5,3 hours away!!

Glasgow
So we left sammo at an early 1130! We were ment to get up at 10 so we could all shower and be ready to leave by 12, but since sammos shower had more moss than kate moss we all pretty much decided against it! Once we left we got to a carriage and heart throb tom owen gave some delish girls a copy of the CD, it looked like they had mixed opinions about what was going on, plus we probably looked like the biggest bellends in the whole of Manchester and the UK since we were filming the whole situation! After that we went to Sainsburys and got some food and drink and set sail for Glasgow!
We arrived at the King Tuts wah wah hut at around 5, the drive through glasgow was sweet, no traffic, no trouble with parking or anything! We went around the back and loaded in all the merch and gear, once in we went into the dressing room that had mood lighting and a fridge full of beer! Then we were told that we got a free meal, i had the vegan chilli, it was real good. This place also has a frozen margarita machine, which is fucking great! The sound is also super good, and the support band are sounding checking right now, there song has the same structure as that akon song, ii wannnaaa makke loooveee righhhttt noww nahh nahhhhh! So far so good, i'll keep updating!

Wolverhampton
If there was an award for the UKs most average city, it would go to wolverhampton! The city seemed like a larger Newport, which is never a good thing, it seemed to be over run by Poundlands and Newsagents! The venue was a real good size and seemed to be in a some what good location, and as the show was "sold out" we were all expecting a good night! The doors opened and we expected floods of kids to run in, but it seemed that the venues cap was actually around 90, so the venue took into consideration that there would be band members and crew, so they sold only around 80 tickets. So in a room that could of easily held 200 it didn't seem like a good turn out! The support bands and save your breath were real good considering the sound wasn't brilliant, attack attack were as tight as a cats asshole and the kids that were there seemed to enjoy it! We didn't do very well on merch either, but its the first day of tour so there are plently more shows to make up for it! After the show we got some cheeky food from a little van called "mr sizzles", i had the vegan option, "tray of chips" and the lads had various dry and bland burgers, the good thing was the lady who served us had some leather trousers on and blatently took a shit load of abuse from every drunk asshole that also came to grab some quick food! After all that fun we drove a good 2 hours to Sammos house in Manchester, we watched a lady fart cum out of her bum, and another lady who flopped her fat gut on some poor mans back, it was great!
