We had a really good time in Europe in October. Thanks to those who came out to the shows and special thanks to our tour-mates the Riff Randells for the good times.
Pictures and a tour diary to follow.
Show last week in Calgary was a nice surprise. It was our first time playing at SAIT and not our last.
For those of you living outside the Calgary area who don't know what SAIT means... look it up!
Just found out today we'll be playing New Year's Eve in Calgary. The show will take place at MacEwan Hall and we'll be playing with Alexis on Fire, our good friends the Madcowboys and Ten Second Epic.
We'd appreciate it if you'd come have a drink with us.
See ya then,

Hey ho.
We're finally able to update this site again. It's good to be back!
Just finished recording, mixing and mastering a new record in a blistering ten days!
First I should explain what I mean by "new" record. We've re-recorded our first self titled record and added a couple of tracks that we used to play back in the day but never got around to "laying down" ("laying down" - that's music industry talk for "recording").
Interesting to compare the first record and the new one (we're calling it "II") some things have changed but most really haven't.
It's being released tomorrow on October 5th at the Rotterdam Rumble.
Oh yeah, we're in Holland right now.
Love,
KJ

Happy New Year. Thanks to all the familiar and not-so-familiar faces who came down to the Broken City on new year's. If that show is any indication, 2007 should be a good one.
For those in Southern California, we've been invited by San Diego's legendary Casbah to help them celebrate their 18th anniversary on January 21st, 2007. It's our first show in San Diego in over six years.
Mike is staying back for a show with his other band The Madcowboys. Filling in will be our very good friend Kepi Ghoulie. It's gonna be good!
Love,
KJ

Kalimotxo?
We're in the middle of a couple of days of hanging out in Madrid. It's 40
degrees outside. Good chance of coming home with a tan.
Show news: One show cancelled (Helsingborg) and one added (Oslo). Check out the

Sweating like a puerco,

Show for Oviedo moved to tonight. Our plane from London was late yesterday so we couldn't play last night. The promoter and club owner were kind enough to give us another chance.
Norway and England were great. We have a few days off next week and we're working on filling them up with some shows in Norway and Sweden. If you have any ideas where we should play, drop us a line!
See ya soon,
KJ

Sorry for any inconvenience,

First things first...
We have a show this friday at the Canmore Hotel in lovely Canmore, Alberta.
Now the update:
Happy belated New Year.
We're back in one piece after braving the rock 'n roll jungles of the far east and downundah.
Of course we had a good time.
We'd like to thank all of those who lent us their gear (especially guitars and drum breakables) during the past couple months. We couldn't have done it without The Yum Yum's, Mach Pelican, Jr. Monster, Rasputin, Helper Monkeys, Sin City and Quartermain (plus many others).
Special thanks to the Groovie Ghoulies for not only lending us their gear but their lead singer as well. Kepi Ghoulie filled in on bass for Mike while he took over for poor Mark on guitar. Mark had to head home a couple of shows early to take care of some business at home. Both Mike and Kepi were incredible in their part-time positions.
Also in the "filling in" department, we'd like to thank Brendan Tincher from our good friends The Neckers for taking over for Jason while he did what he had to. Anyone who was at the shows will agree that Brendan did a great job. Although we missed Jason, Brendan made us feel like he'd been drumming with us since the band started.
We had a pretty exciting 2005 here at Chixdiggit. New album on Fat, great tours to Europe, Australia, U.S. and our home turf Canada. We went to Japan for the first time and had some cool days off in all those places plus Singapore and Thailand too. Can't wait to get back on the road.
I'm working on the tour diaries but they might be a while. Keep checking back.
Love, KJ
