What a week... The show at the Troubadour for JJJ and JTV was fantastic. Itwas a Wednesday, it was loud, it was hot, it was dusty, the crowd of JJJ winners were fantastic and we had a great time playing in such intimate surrounds. Many thanks to JJJ for putting on the show and to Kid Sam who played an incredible set. Thursday was significant for it's impressive lack of maturity and sophistication but we did get to have a decent meal at a reasonable hour for once. We were reunited with our touring buddies Parallel Lions and Leena on Friday and Saturday for shows on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane, both ofwhich were a great time, the crowd on Friday more than making up for the completely weird day I had and the crowd on Saturday were able to make me completely forget that the Saints had lost the Grand Final so I owe many thanks to everyone who came to those shows... This week I am very much looking forward to returning to The Kingdom, I am eager to hear of the many happenings since my last visit and of the urgent search for a suitable heir to the throne. My thoughts are with you good people...Looking forward to the West Coast on the weekend as well and after that there is only Ballarat and San Remo to go... This tour is too short! See you soon. PD

Like Wales. But Newer. And further South.

Well we're about halfway through the tour already, time flies when you're having fun yes? and we have been having plenty of fun.. The shows have been great, the crowds absolutely wonderful and even the long drives after each show have been entertaining and... educational? - the drive back from Wollongong afforded us just the right amount of time to get all the way through Iron Maiden's classic double live album 'Live After Death', John Hedigan is now a changed man... I was feeling quite different after thedrive back from Newcastle as well... Thanks again to everyone at the shows,looking forward to Qld (especially Wednesday at the Troubadour).I cannot get Parallel Lions and Leena songs out of my head. See you soon.

It's been a memorable start to the tour and it's been particularly great to spend the last two nights at the Corner Hotel which is one my favourite venues and somewhere that SFK have also had a lot of memorable shows... Richard, who books the shows at the Corner, is the same guy who gave SFK our very first gig and it was great to be joined onstage by Clint and Steph on Saturday night to mark the occasion of 15 years to the day since that first show... Thank you to everyone that was there to share that little milestone with us... My ears won't soon forget it.. It's also been great hanging about with old friends Parallel Lions and new friends Leena and Will and getting to hear them play amazing sets each night, I strongly encourage getting along early to see them... This week myself, Patrick John Bourke, John Patrick Hedigan, Shannon James John Fitzpatrick O'Vanderwert (as well as the mascot and the German) will roll on into NSW and we're very much looking forward to it...Thanks again.

Lots of you have had very kind and positive things to say about the record and there's lots of good stuff happening with it so for that I thank you...The tour is just around the corner and I can't wait - less talky-talky, more singy-singy... See you there.

EVERYTHING IS TRUE IS HERE

Friday - 14/08/2009 - 00:37

Good morning all... My first solo record Everything is True comes out
today... It's a strange and exciting and somewhat baffling feeling
(uh-oh)... I suppose like any big project one might undertake there is
always a long period of not seeing how or when it will ever be finished and
it seems very far off and unreachable in the vague, unknowable future... and
then one day you're just there and it's finished... And then it’s the
process you've just been through to get there that seems far away and vague
and unknowable... It’s enough to make someone start rambling off cheap
philosophical shite... So let’s not get hung up on the nature of time eh?
Here we are, here it is - for now anyway... I thank you for reading and
listening, I hope you enjoy the record and I’m looking forward (again) to
being out on tour playing these songs...

Hiya. Had an excellent time at Splendour in the Grass, thank you to all present at the GW Mclennan stage for sharing our 2nd show with us and making it such a good time...all these one-off shows are making me very antsy to get on tour and into 'the swing of things' as they say (mostly in places where it's still 1959)... I decided not to play 'Time to Pretend' on Saturday lest MGMT come over and shoot me with their bows and arrows, but we did play this instead - click here
