TOUR SCHEDULE:
Unfortunately no regular touring is foreseen in the near future, as it is currently very difficult to financially break even (let alone to make some money...). But every so now and then a gig is organized, sometimes planned (see above Roadburn), sometimes on the fly. Best is to join the community for up to date information.
