Italy!

We had such a lovely time in Italy! We've just got back after not much sleep on last night (about 2 hours) before our early flight!

Our first show was in Forli at the Diagonal Loft Club, with lots of people dancing, singing along and inserting their own handclap sections! Lovely to meet you all!

The DJ also played lots of current UK indiepop bands that we love like Their Hearts Were Full of Spring, Pocketbooks and The Hermit Crabs..

Pescara was at the Mono Spazio Bar which was ace, where Pete + the Pirates and Parenthetical Girls were also about to play..

After Pescara we tried visiting Rome! We managed to get about 1.5 hours there and found the Collesseum, but didn't have enough time to go in. It was very hot and we ate lots of icecream!

We also saw lots of nuns in Rome, here's a photo of some of them at the services - smoking nuns!

We had loads of fun at Extra Alt Club in Recanati, cool music in both rooms and a huge venue with great sound on top of a hill. 4 pizzas! We met lots of lovely people, there was a very large merch queue! Thank you to Circus Worm for letting us use their equipment..

Next was Feedback in Foligno on a Saturday night - you people are crazy! A clubnight run by the fantastic Paola superstar, it all got a bit busy and clubby after we played so we left you all to it! Again, we went to the town centre and ate lots of icecream. This is where we met Ji-Jo!

The last show was in La Limonaia Music Club in Fucecchio, another venue on top of a hill, which looked like a wedding reception from the outside. We stayed in a monastry in a bridge which is now a hostel.

Many thanks to Chiara + Matteo from Organetta for arranging the tour and to all the promoters for looking after us with great shows, food and accommodation. xxx
