I spent my first full day at the beach here in Italy, my hosts and promoters are amazing, taking us to the best Italian places to wine, dine and relax – the perfect recovery between shows.
The crew, Ian, Silvia, Riccardo
One of the best burgers I ever had, right on the beach in Ravenna, Italy.
Relaxo
Below are a series of shots I went about taking, I was enjoying the formations and geometry of the umbrellas and chairs. The colours were vivid as the sun was just about to go down. Amazing twilights here.

AXXONN @ Catch22 London
Me Solo @ Cafe Oto
Ian – Wasted
Birmingham Church
Bangers before Supersonic Festival
Cheese Pie
One of my favorite things on tour – cheaps coffee in a styrofoam cup – even better when at a noise festival
This love heart drawn on our hands with Nikko with ‘SS’ written inside it got us into the ‘Sold Out’ Supersonic Festival
Our friends band ‘Drum Eyes’ (who got us into SS) opened at Supersonic Festival, they were GREAT!
Nothing looks better than a wall of amps, NOTHING!
We LOVE smoke!
ALOT!
Sunn O))) Set-list
After Supersonic Festival finished we powered on and did an all-nighter until we had to catch the train at 0720 up to Glasgow for our show on Saturday night, seemed like a good idea at the time but really hurt me for a few days, ALOT – but we must live up to our EP name ‘Masters of the Epic Day’
Above: Liam, Laurie and Adam – great Glasgow guys outside the venue
Above are pice from the venue Ian and I did solos in Glasgow on Saturday night, the alley way was sweet as, really nice light. We were playing opposite a great venue called Stereo – the place we played in is kinda like a squat (ex-hairdressers) owned by Stereo. The gig was really good with a great turn out of people.

What I really love about touring is the ability to play night after night. Fortunately between my solos and the glorious amount of AXXONN shows I’m pretty much playing every night for 7 weeks. After just 4 AXXONN shows in 5 nights the development of our set is really taking shape, I’m pleasantly surprised with how it’s fleshing out….and start getting itchy every afternoon in anticipation of whaling on it.

I am a BIG Joy Division/New Order fan so a trip to the once Hacienda one of the UK’s most famous clubs ever, unfortunately it’s skeleton of it’s former self, I could still feel the vibes.
I made Ian pose for some shots, he wasn’t feeling the vibes
