On Tour With The Vandals

The Vandals are touring down under and we've got the inside scoop from Joe Escalante himself! Here's the haps so far... all photos by Austin Brown...

The Vandals on tour in Australia with Pennywise, Sum 41, and Bowling For
Soup. Doesn't get much better than this and the sun is actually out,
despite the fact that it's supposed to be Fall.

Qantas got us here in style (thanks for the pajamas), and after one show
in Brisbane, the theory that your band will never break up if you have
even the slightest career down under holds true. This place is a
blast.

Highlights include exotic animals roaming the streets like they were
ferrel cats, or cats from Ferrel's, a great ice cream bar called "Golden
Gaytime," and Randy Bradbury. Lowlights include the pitiful channel
selection on the hotels.

Tomorrow we visit the Eiffel Tower.
