    Last night was ridiculous. Susan Marshall sang My Curse. They definitely put it all out there. Went to the coffee shop in our hotel after the show and most of the band came in to eat. Got to say hi to Greg as he was leaving. He was in a great mood and hugged me.

    Also, got to say hello and shake JON HAMM's hand at the coffee shop! :shock: He was also there (not with the Whigs though)

    I'll be there!!! sooooo excited. I told my friends that the only thing I wanted for Christmas was a trip to Cincy for NYE.... most of my plane ticket and my hotel costs have been taken care of. I have great friends.

    I REALLY hope this isn't the last of the the Whigs shows....but if it is, at least I will be there...

  • Damn straight! Hope we get a single soon.
  • I don't think it's possible for me to be any more excited for this album. And a tour to follow.

    Just read an interview with Greg on The Skinny's website where he mentions that the Whigs are working on a new EP :)

    Is it too soon to ask about their next steps in the studio? "Well I'm in New Orleans right now and we're working on an EP," Dulli reveals. "We're very much an ongoing concern. I'm still going to do other things but I love this group and I do love playing with these guys, so it's absolutely an ongoing concern. How quickly something will come out, album-wise, I have no idea, but we're here. And we're going nowhere."

    saw them right after PJ finished the tour. They (AW) sucked. Joe Arthur was good.
