HEY FLAIRS FRIENDS & FANS!

Well our 1st ever European tour was totally KICK ASS!!!  Now that our livers have finially recovered it's about time we updated ya!  It took us all over the beautiful country of  France with a stop in Belgium and a drive through Germany.  All of the shows were KILLER and we were lucky enough to share the stage with AMERICAN DOG  from Ohio and  legendary pioneers of punk the BUZZCOCKS!!  We met some really cool people, saw some really cool stuff, drank a lot of really good wine, ate a lot of baguettes and cheese, drank some more really great wine with few shots of whiskey here and there, drank some tasty Belgian beers, read some delightful German porn, but most importantly  MELTED MANY FACES!!

okay not really. sorry. but i'm sure ryan will set up a kissing booth at this handful of shows we have coming up before Europe:

Our favourite writer Trevor Hargreaves (I think he was our 1st official Flairs interviewer!) was hauling ass all around town reviewing as many shows as humanly possible for New Music West last weekend. 

Check out his review of our show as well as a whack of others:

Hey Hey!! 

Just thought I'd give you all a bit of an update as to what's going on in the world of The Flairs these days.  Since we've returned home from our long-ass North American/Indonesian tour at the end of August, we have slowed things down show-wise and have been focusing on what/where we are going to attack next!!  A little bit of relocating for some of us, a TON of writing for all of us, and a broken leg bone for one of us ( Ryan), is proving to come together sucessfully!!  Although distance may prove to be extremely challenging for some bands, The Flairs are in full force and can't wait to hit the road yet again with some new killer tunes and high energy in yo' face RNR action!!  We plan on shooting another video in the next few weeks or so and are in the beginnings of mapping out an East Coast tour for Feb/March 2007!!  These are exciting times and we can't wait to see all your faces once again!!  FUCK YEAH!! 

We have a show here in Vancouver on Saturday, December 16th with our fabulous pals SUGARBLADE.  This will most likely our last show here for a few months, until we return from kickin' East Coast ass....SO BE THERE and show some local support!!!!!!!  Hope all is well with everyone and we all look forward to seeing ya soon!!!!!!!!
