(almost back on track, almost on top of moving on…)

and sorry, but no thing to say for awhile, just grief and fever, and a snowsqualling wind blowing through the streets like wolves let loose and running…
did a bunch of interviews last week, shipwrecked in bed with pneumonia, like trying to wrestle goldfish in a bathtub full of motor oil, the words kept slipping out of reach and into the fog, blinking forlornly…
good news= tours are starting to take shape. will post all the dates once they’re confirmed.
right now europe is march/april= france, UK, ireland, belgium, switzerland, italy, holland. (germany’s looking bleak, but maybe munich.)
we’re trying to book another tour in august/september= eastern europe, and russia if we can.
U!S!A! U!S!A! U!S!A!———> (short one for now, but more in the fall.) this is us in may= boston, nyc, philadelphia, baltimore, d.c., asheville, chapel hill, atlanta, nashville, louisville, chicago, detroit.
that’s all for now. but a lot more later…

hi! i’m from argentina
I hope you will come here someday! let me know if you do, i die for seeing you live!
i’m waiting for my deluxe edition of Kollaps Tradixionales to come!
Dont u have plans of touring in Brazil? It would be great!
Give us this gift!
Rio de Janeiro wait 4 you!
Living in Germany I know all too well how bleak it is. But couldn’t you come anyway? At least once to the east? France and Italy are quite a distance to travel from here. Would be good. (and well…yes, yeah, would be great, but everythings
great nowadays…so.. would be good. real good.)
I hope you get better soon and the winter goes away.
eastern europe? romania too?
please try to get a date in germany….! munich would be nice!
i am so excited about the new album.
hope to see you soooooon.
I wonder if the possibility to comment on your posts/expressions of thought (or is it more than just thought?), is simply to make ‘us’ feel better or you actually read it. I don’t know, considering it’s hard not to grasp that you are genuinely sympathetic, sincere, aggrieved, tormented, simmering, … (?) Do tell me if I’m wrong.
What I respect the most is that you try to express what thwarts you and perhaps even change the world, that is: change minds, even given the fact that you as well are just people with no definite, external purpose and that the chance of misunderstanding or just not understanding is so vast.
I tend to permit myself of understanding you perhaps half of what wanders, hovers in your head(s). It’s 2010 yet and finally appreciate you and your music enough — enough isn’t the right word — and with the time being ‘right’ (and wrong), that I can experience you playing in Belgium on the 3rd of April. I hope that I’m going to be able to talk to you, on the condition of you not being tired of…
Don’t forget Barcelona please!
Come to Lisbon, plz plz
Thanks for those new infos!
I can’t await the new album and I really hope, you somehow manage to play in the North of Germany.
Get well soon and the spring is already coming
L.Cohen and SMZ from Montréal, Québec in March in France
that’s great (good i mean)
sail on like weapons to taiwan
Damn, Pneumonia is terrible, I’ve had it myself earlier in 2009, it seems running outside in the rain with a t-shirt and pants was a terrible idea.
But it’s good to hear that things are getting in motion for tours, I hope you’ll come back to Toronto for another show, the matinee at Lee’s Palace was fantastic.
Hope everyone else is doing well, and take care of each other
see you soon in L!YON (I hope)
Don’t forget our little Portugal, people. =(
come to brazil,
…
Please visit Sweden! Otherwise I have to go to Holland, and that’s not near at all.
oh come on
why is germany bleak? cant be.
Please, don’t forget about Russia
Terribly sorry to hear about the sickness. Great to hear about the tour. See you guys in Baltimore and DC!
Kanada Dates?
I can’t wait for Baltimore and/or DC. Hopefully I will be out of college by then.
You should should should should come to Central NY, like Utica/Rome/Syracuse or somewhere around there.
NYC is just full of too many hip kids and it’s 4 hours away. My girlfriend lives in Boston, though and maybe I will try to visit her while you’re playing there.
Thanks for coming in France!!! I can’t wait to see you on stage again!!!
That is so good to read that kind of news. Can’t wait to know the venue and to plan the trip throught France once again.
I’ll be seeing you in amsterdam!
Germany is looking bleak, OKAY!, .. yes, but Straßburg, Bern or anything else nearly the south of Germany, please? The venue in Schorndorf, the manfuactur, near Stuttgart is really nice - but on the last tour less than 50 people…
Germany is really desolate, even in Berlin 5 years ago less than 50 people..
Hope y’all come to southern California, USA some time during your tour in the future. Looking forward to seeing y’all.
Godspeed
Hello! Come to Copenhagen or Århus, Denmark or at least Malmö, Sweden. I’ll bring the weed. Hope to see you.
Pity there are no Northern Ireland dates, but I am quite smugly holding my ticket for the Dublin show! Now if only the new album would hurry up and arrive I would be happy.
***pleasepleaseplease***
please come to japan
Please stop somewhere in Finland in case you happen to end up in Scandinavia or are going to Russia. I’ll rob a bank for you if it is a question of money.
That’s pretty rad that you guys are trying to book Russia!
so 2 dates in paris
Pretty cool, nice place (alhambra), well, you make my day !
CHILE CHILE CHILE CHILE CHILE CHILE
Nothing about Montreal for now? Sad…
Hope you swing through Glasgow again. Been almost four years. Not the prettiest post-industrial city in the world, but I was walking through an abandoned park last night, bang smack in the middle of this half-decaying industrial wasteland of a neighbourhood I live in, blanketed in the unbroken light February snow and it made me happy. Sure, a guy got stabbed in the Chinese takeaway across from our front window a couple of weeks back, and there’s an Orange Lodge and Blue Star Club next to that, but sometimes here can be a nice place…
UT Connewitz in Leipzig again!!
Thanks for the nice mixtape!
I’m looking forward to the Dunk! Festival Zottegem.
Incidentally:German BR2 radio on 6.02.2010 (23.05H - 24.00H CET)repeated the great Vic Chesnutt concert Munich 2007 (with Members of SMZ).

Please more Canadian dates. The west needs Zion
San Francisco would be amazing. But Oakland would be even better.
I received the deluxe CD yesterday, a pleasure for my ears, my body and my mind. It make my day, so i thank you.
Hope to see you again in Lyon, or anywhere.
san francisco please
oh dear oh dear
please please for the love of everything holy, make the france shows in may. thats when i am over there. i know you guys are never visiting mexico, so thats the only chance i will have to be able to see you.
please
Make some mountains in the prairies. Winnipeg.
We need you in germany.
come to cologne pleaaaaseeeee!
i really hope you´ll come to germany!!! would love to see you over here!!!
Kanada needs you! Ontario pleaaasee.
indonesia is daydreaming.
it would mean so much to me and many others if you made it back to california.
I believe Montreal would welcome you with open arms. That would be the loveliest time.
Yes, please please come back to Chicago. I have missed you so very dearly.
Hope to see you in Russia again! We’ll be waiting!
Best wishes
when in Louisville, Kentucky please try a companion date 70 miles east in Lexington, Kentucky,great college radio station WRFL…worth the effort.
I feel like a whining brat, but please come to Norway! Your concert at Parkteatret was amazing.
bmore - hell yeah!
Most of the people here are commenting in hope that you visit the place they live. As a brazilian I would find the most amazing thing if you guys came here, but who am I fooling?, there are not enough listeners here, and that is such a shame. You guys have been my favorite band for years and I must accept that you probably will never come to Latin America. Sad but true. Keep on making records, keep on rocking.
Thank you for the amazing Kollaps Tradixionales! To add my lonesome voice to the pleas of many, we would love to see you come to Australia. Melbourne has a strong following and though that is the other end of the country from here, it is a lot easier than travelling to Europe or the US. Please come to our shores!
KEEP ON WALKING. YOU ARE WALKING A BEAUTIFULL AND DIFICULT PATH. THANKS.
BARCELONA.
