…. and woke up to Mudhoney and X-Ray Spex!
After getting up and breakfast in a cafe which served up some delicious coffee, we sat and watched Neighbours before saying our goodbyes for another six months or so!
Back on the road things were going well until my speedo decided to pack up and all sorts of interference came through on the stereo. Got into Nottingham with no problem but the inner city road system is fucked! I knew I was gonna have a problem parking when I came across a park and ride on the road in and it was about 20 minutes before I found some dark and dank back alley road.
Luckily, I passed the Narrowboat on the way and it was only about a ten-minute walk back. It was 5 o’clock when I got there so I spent a couple of hours bumming around. I went for a walk along the canal which was obviously once very beautiful but today is a muddy murky rubbish trap lined by dirty broken old buildings.
Got into the Narrowboat at about 7 and ordered a pint and got told the gig was off! Jawbreakers singer had to go into hospital for an operation on his throat and they’ve cancelled the 4 UK shows!!!
Well, I had a sit down with my pint and pondered what to do. Well, there was nothing for it except to carry on the tour without Jawbreaker….
