So someone thought it would be a good idea to let ME have a space to ramble on the Cherrytree website?! Well there 'aint no turning back now Cherrytree! Sometimes it'll be a paragraph, sometimes a sentence, but everyday I will update the Cherrytree site with an inside view on whats happening within "La Croux" that day...

My girlfriend and I then went and met my Dad, my Grandpa, my auntie, and her boyfriend (David Warner from the Omen and Titanic!) I didn't even know he did those films?! Crazy.

We arrived at John Henry's (rehearsal room) at like 1pm to set up some of our other equipment to make sure it all worked as we have a festival in Portugal one day, and one in Scotland the day after, so 1 set needs to go to one, and one to the other. This took most the day for the poor crew and a little bit for me.

So todays festival looked like a village fate as we rolled in on the bus. We all looked out of the window of the back lounge and "awww"ed at it. It's funny how after a year of touring we found ourselves awwing at a festival that must have held 15,000 people per stage!!

The boiling texas-esque sunshine turned into some tropical monsoon! The stage flooded and everything got pushed back.

Mid set we have to come off, move all our equipment to the back of the stage and carry on as we were getting soaked. To be honest, the rain was welcomed as it was so clammy.

We played at Werchter Festival last night in Belgium, and I can honestly say that it was one of our finest shows! Our favourite show from the year before was also in Belgium..the Belgums, Belgians? are bananas!

We're on route to Belgium. Back on the festival runs which should be fun. We've just driven past my house on the bus. It's always been a dream of mine to get picked up by a tourbus outside of your house...today COULD have been the day!

I'm in another club?! HOW did this happen?! For a guy that doesn't drink, I go out a lot. There's only so much tap water one can drink..I reckon I have saved about £10,000 on drinking water in night clubs as opposed to booze

I'm sat in the taxi on the way home from the show just 5 hours before I am supposed to be getting up to travel to Glastonbury for the festival. We're on the big stage and we're on directly after Phoenix. Therefore, tomorrow is going to be the best day...ever?!

I woke up this morning missing a lot of my friends from back up north, so I got on a train, and 5 hours later, we were prepping the BBQ in their back garden!

So I can't really go into much detail about what we did today. We were rehearsing for Glastonbury and we had some people pop in to lend us a hand...I'm not mentioning anymore as I want it to be a surprise!

I watched a documentary about the band behind the majority of Mo Town recordings. Such talented musicians, but very sad to see how badly they were ripped off..

Anyway we just finished playing at Southside Festival in Germany. Supposedly it had rained since Wednesday morning so the site was so covered in mud, cars getting dragged out of the car park by tractors and all! For a crowd to still have that much enthusiasm after being p*ssed on for 5 days, is quite something

So I'm stood side stage at Hurricane Festival in Germany watching a band who all have animal masks on, all wearing different coloured tuxedo s. Sounds weird already right? That not to mention the male and female clowns doing interprative dance next to them...oh, and the mime artists...Germans.

In England, everyone puts up their flags, paints their faces and gets overly patriotic, but sadly, this comes hand in hand with people becoming massive drunk, lairy idiots.

It's hard to write about a day where I've not done a great deal. I did have a good day though, in bed 'til 3, watched "Fear and Loathing.." And my flatmate made Brownies!

London really is beautiful in the sunshine. I'm currently stood outside Topshop on Oxford Street waiting for Mickey so we can go and blag some free sunglasses from Ray Ban. We really are so cheeky, as Mickey got 2 free pairs at the weekend, and I got a pair of Ray Bans and some free glasses (thank you Foureyes) earlier today!!

I am writing this in the changeover between the two bands. The change over used to excite me so much, and now I know that people will just be getting ready and that the mysterious backstage, isn't really that glamorous, especially when you have played Stoke Sugarmill. Jesus Wept.

The problem with popping back home for a few days at a time, is that you end up throwing a lot of stuff on the floor and rushing out back on tour again.

Festival season has well and truly started. We got back from the Isle of Wight this morning and to say I am tired is an understatement, that and the jet-lag from the US tour. We stayed up until the early hours eating Kit Kats and Frazzles (which are these Bacon Flavoured crisps...other worldly).

We played to 10,000 people tonight right before Orbital. The stage was enormous and the tent was rammed. We had keyboard problems, but that's nothing new! Mickey covered it well, and I'm not sure many people actually realised... I got a text from my sister saying it was live on TV too!

Today, we met up at our usual rehearsal space to get everything ready for festival season, which I am so pleased to say starts TOMORROW! We head down to the Isle of White festival in, surprisingly, The Isle of White.

When tour is over, we try to get back to our normal lives, although more and more, I am realising that the touring is now our "normal life" and that time at home is our alien surrounding.

Mickey, our keyboard player was given a box of Girl scout cookies, quoted to be "better then crack" by Matt LaMotte, Cherrytree Records. She hugged them and held them close to her heart, not realising she was in the corner of the shot. The product placement was incredible. Up there with the scene in Wayne's World with his Reebok Tracksuit and a can of Pepsi.

We're on 'Good Morning America' tomorrow. The woman at reception freaked out when I told her this so I guess its a big show? I do hate being so naïve sometimes...

Denver last night was bananas! Probably the best show we've ever played, and the best response we've ever had.

One of the girls had the best Quicksand esque "La Quiff" that I've seen in a while, an 8/10 effort. The shows have been getting bigger and better since "Bulletproof" got in the top 10. The Ogden is a grand old place
