Summer Tour Blog (Abridged) + Bay Bridged Podcast + more
We’re home from tour now. It was pretty epic. We saw Canada and the east coast. We watched Radiohead play an amazing show in front of the Statue of Liberty. We partied with some crazy Brazillian rockers. We carried a 1500 pound organ up 2 flights of stairs. We drove way too much. We learned that the iphone will get you lost every time you try to use it for directions. Anton learned French for the Montreal show. Lewis danced around on stage in a leopard suit. Jon was there. And then we flew home. Cool things to check out:
- The Bay Bridged Podcast – An in depth interview, a few songs from our records and one exclusive live track: “The Rise and Fall of Teotihuacan”
- Bay Guardian Feature – A nice print interview and story about us in a sweet weekly Bay Area paper.
- The Sprockettes dance to Flight II - This Portland-based all female “bicycle dance troupe” recently went on tour with Flight II as one of the songs in their set. more videos here

Metal Orchestra Class
One of the highlights of the “Four-Door Tour” was that in Salem Oregon we taught a metal seminar to about 40 high school and middle orchestra students. It was awesome. After playing our usual set we taught them all metal riffs and got them all to jam along with us. They rocked! The local paper The Statesman Journal was there and made a great little video article about it.
Thanks to West Salem Orchestra Director Darryl Silberman for hooking us up with this awesome gig. We’re very excited to get back to Salem again soon for a sweet club show.
We were on the radio
We played acoustic on Mikey Likes it the other day. It was fun. Check out some acoustic versions of some new tunes and an interview on the podcast HERE
