Hi peeps…

Well… two thousand left-hand driving miles and five awesome gigs later, back in Holland… now what? First of all, we'd love to thank all the wonderful people that made us feel so very welcome in the United Kingdom and a huge cheers to all you fans out there! It truly was a blast and we had the best of times!!! We've met a lot of  crazy, cool, drunk, colourful, fantastic human beings and be sure, some of you have made an impression that will last a lifetime… We also made some valuable contacts that may help us along with the band and the first requests for coming over again, already made it to our inbox, so there's your chance to get your ears wrecked even more!

Just a couple things; the left-hand driving was not that hard, apart from a close call with an idiot in a Ford Ka in Grimsby… (yes YOU, dumb ass, keep your distance and pay attention!) and some honking and flashing lights at us every now and then. Your currency troubled us a bit more, but there always seemed to be helpful staff to lend a hand. Oh, and we just loved the local brew, well, most of it! The tunnel was rather dull, but comfy (impressive digging you guys!). The waiter at the Thai restaurant in Mansfield doesn't speak Dutch, so don't let him fool you.

A few facts;
Steven nearly got French kissed by a GUY at one of the gigs!!! Pretty kinky…
Marius was the only one buying souvenirs and we're sorry, we won't let him do it again!
Marthe (Marlon's gf) was asleep for almost the entire tour! Proves that Fake is booooring…
Maurice tested his floor effect controller on beer resistance and found out it even got more sticky and yucky then it was before. Eeeeeeeeeeeeew… now it also sticks to the walls!
Marlon plays a surprisingly mean game of pool, so make sure not to play for money.
Peter drove the bus practically every mile of the tour and had a hard time returning it. He also has the loudest snore in the band! Figures….

All in all it was fabulous and we can't wait to do it again! So we will… make sure to check the tour dates in here and at www.fakenomore.com or www.terrybogus.com !

A huge thank you to Mr. and Mrs. Carnage, for making us sleep a few on the way up and cooking us a fabulous breakfast… we love you guys!!! Hope you made it in time for school…

And very special thanks to the wonderful ladies at Specsavers downtown Wakefield, for fixing Peter's broken sunglasses within half an hour at no charge!! Big kiss… muuuuaaaaah!

Maus also likes to thank the drunk girl that did a full split by slipping on a wet floor and almost made him pee his pants for laughter…. smooth moves baby!

If you think you might be pregnant by one of the band members, we hope you had a good time and we're sorry… lol…

Oh, and you're very welcome to recommend us the best local Fish and Chips stores you know of for next time!

Thanks a million to all of you out there and hope to see you soon…….. really soon!

Maus, Nars, Zed, Brando & Pete.

When you return to the U.K. let 'me' know if you want to play at the Forum at Tunbridge Wells in Kent (www.twforum.co.uk) and I will make it so! We've got a lot of people round here who would love to see a FNM tribute band. Perhaps you could do a gig with the wonderful Zipperface (a friends band) - take a look at the photos that I took of them at their last show - scary and awesome band!
