Kickin It Down Under Australia/New Zealand Tour 09

Yo, so its been a minute since I've set the blog off, but Ive been extra busy. Lets take it back to April 25th the day after The Bronx/Trash Talk US tour ended. I woke up in Brooklyn around 8 am, threw a load of laundry in the wash and headed to a barber shop in the city with G.Carrots. Our flight to Australia left around 3 pm, but before we could touch down in Australia we had to stop in LA,NZ and one stop in Sydney Aus before we got to the Gold Coast of Australia. It was a 25 hour ordeal and we ended up in Gold Coast at around 1 pm on the 27th. Our driver for the tour was the illest dude ever. An older Australian dude named Dino who knew everything there was to know about Australia. He took us to a Rainforest at like 1 am, it was pitch black and i was scared shitless, but it was the illest experience. All of the shows in Aus were insane, since TT had never been there before the ppl were hyped, it was so weird because we would go to clubs and shit and ppl would walk up 2 us and buy us drinks because they knew who we were. After playing Gold Coast,Brisbane,Sydney,Canberra,and Melbourne we flew to Auckland,New Zealand, we didnt know what to expect but it was definitely off the hook. The first show was kinda weird but it was cool, after the gig a bunch of ppl invited us to a party and it was at a big ass house in NZ full of models. The gig the next day was at a modeling agency with the Auckland skyline behind us as we played(sooo epic) the gig was also full of America's Next Top Model contestants, really wild shit . Of course post gig we partied. Around 2 am the promoter informed us that we had a 6 am flight and the shuttle would be picking us up at 3 am, needless to say we all laughed in his face, we missed the flight and caught a 4 pm flight back to Australia. We played Adelaide and then flew to the West Australia,Perth. Perth is where the homies/Tour partners Extortion live, needless to say the party was set the fuck off. These dudes party like no other (we learned that in Melbourne). 2 shows in Perth, drunken Karaoke, drunken tattoos and lots of wild shit goin down. After 2 weeks of touring Australia it definitely has a place in my heart. I am currently in Japan and the tour out here has been going well. I will keep the blog updated and post sum Japan pics later.
