Philadelphia to Kentucky, Teatro Fiasco tour, 20-23 May 2017

By Talita

Currently the tour bus is driving through the Appalachian Mountains. They’re lush and green with plentiful crops of tall trees and grassy hills, dotted with white houses complete with porches or warehouses with large trucks parked outside. We’re winding around bends, currently going through Johnson City Limits, now over train tracks, lumber yards, McDonalds, a swarm of yellow school buses.

We’re on our way to Hazard, Kentucky, the penultimate show of the Teatro Fiasco USA tour dates. Poet Derrick Brown has already left the bus, (he went to do a show with Eugene Mirman and The Dead Milkmen after the Teatro Boston show). The routing on this tour means that the Teatro Fiasco dates are interspersed with festival shows in different radio territories. DJ Howie (or as he was rechristened yesterday, Howdie) Pyro is still with us, but he’s has had to sit around for a few days whilst the guys play different festivals.

I jumped on this tour at the MMRBQ, I flew out to Philadelphia and headed across the Benjamin Franklin bridge to Camden, New Jersey. The MMRBQ was in a sunken, partially covered amphitheatre, the BB&T Pavilion. There was standing room at the front, then seating, then behind that people picnicking on the grass. It was a mostly overcast day, changeable. The bus was parked up in the concrete lot behind the Pavilion with sparrows sitting on the fence, chirping. The sparrows weren’t the only noisy ones in the parking lot, just outside there was a few Christian extremists protesting with placards and propaganda, shouting through megaphones at anyone who would listen about how we’re all sinners and going to hell. Megaphone guy pointed at Scott, Miley and I “You guys in leather jackets, you (points) going to hell, you (points) there is no other God, Hinduism - you’re going to hell, you (points at me) you’re going to get cancer” rolls eyes - well, welcome to America!

The MMRBQ was in association with Philadelphia radio station WMMR, a rock station that loves the Rival Sons and has done since Pressure & Time. Rival Sons took the stage in the afternoon on bill that included The Pretty Reckless and The Struts. The set was short (general festival length, 30mins), but the crowd was warm. The guys blasted out some favourites and the audience was left wanting more.

Backstage I learnt what Tater Tots were, and Miley and I did a Facebook Live with members of the Rival Sons and Daughters group.

From Camden, New Jersey through the night we travelled to Columbus, Ohio for Rock On The Range (ROTR). The tour bus here is a different experience to the bus in Europe. It’s a single deck, but wider, it has easy chairs, Wi-Fi and even satellite TV with the movie channels!!

We arrived early morning into another concrete parking lot, this time in Ohio, behind the Mapfre Stadium. With Metallica headlining ROTR in the evening there was a ton of trucks and rooms in the arena backstage taken up with their production.

I grabbed a shower behind a light plastic curtain at the back of the ladies’ crew bathrooms, risky maybe, but I felt it was worth it. The guys started interviews at midday, then played the show, then had more interviews. Radio presenters from what seems like across the states were there at little tables. With the single Tied Up from Hollow Bones recently going to radio in the US, the guys are, of course, happy to do the rounds and chat.

Hollow Bones came out a while ago now, but it’s still the current album. To most bands, that don’t put out albums every two years, it would be recent. Yet in some ways, so much has happened in the past year, Hollow Bones already seems like it happened a while ago, and the guys are already openly talking about thinking about recording a new album soon.

As I write this, we’re still driving through the Appalachians and Miley is sitting next to me trying to learn to speak with a British accent. Without a doubt, Miley does the best impressions in Rival Sons. That’s not to say they’re perfect, but he tries to work on them every day, much to everyone’s… delight. “Water, waater, waterr” he is repeating in an English accent as I type this. He’s actually pretty good, but don’t tell him that please.

So, ROTR went well, the guys opened the main stage early afternoon, and rolled out some favourites to the Ohio crowd. Afterwards, festival catering and Scott and Miley wet back into interviews. As the afternoon progressed, the rain came in and by the evening as Volbeat took to the stage, the rain was coming down in sheets. We’d finished press and days duties, so we decided to try and get to a good spot to see Metallica. As soon as the rain stopped for a while we piled into golf carts to race around the side of the arena. But the rain didn’t stop for long enough and our little golf carts were ill-equipped to deal with the downpour. Scott, Miley, Jay and Pete (Tour manager) braved it, together with Dean Delray (comedian) and hopped out of the carts in the torrential rain to see if there was a spot to watch the show from. Dave and I looked at each other, looked at Miley in the cart behind, and decided to get the hell back to the bus! Clothes soaked through, golf cart tyres churning up fountains in front of them, we Super Mario’ed it back to the bus and dried out our clothes. We didn’t get to see Metallica take the stage as by that point, those of us who had decided against the rain, had put on pyjamas, and the tour bus movie channel was calling us. What can I say? I packed two pairs of trousers, and one I’d already ripped climbing up into my bunk, the other was soaked through, my only option was pyjamas!

We drove through the night again, this time down to North Carolina, for a day off at Pete’s in-laws.

I woke up and rolled out of my bunk, stumbled into the ‘front lounge’ of the bus and saw roses out of the windows one side and a house with doggies on the other. How awesome!

It was a great day off. Dave and Jay’s wives came up to hang out. There was a pool and we went swimming in the sunshine. Jay got to cook and make us all dinner (one of his favourite activities), and there were eleven dogs. One dog even got on the tour bus for a visit. For most, if not all of us, that rates pretty highly on the awesome-day-off-scale.

Now I’m sitting in a car park on the tour bus in Hazard, Kentucky. It’s raining outside, and there’s very little Wi-Fi, but tonight, fans are coming from around 15 different states in the US, some driving 12 hours or more, to get to the show. It looks like a nice venue tonight, with red velvet seats and drapes, and I think the guys are pleased to be able to play a headline set again, back with the Teatro Fiasco.

Antwerp, Teatro Fiasco, 2017

I woke up in Antwerp and felt pretty good, so I decided to go for a run. Miley was still asleep, I thought about waiting for him to wake up so we could run together, but sometimes it’s best to just go when the moment takes you and not wait around. I ran from the venue to a nearby park which was surrounded by motorways. It was a grey, cold day in Belgium and I was pleased to get out and get some physical exercise. Although it’s tiring being on the road, its not so much from physical exertion - for me anyway - but from lack of sleep. I had been trying to build up my running stamina since the Sabbath dates last year, where I had multiple opportunities to run with the guys, but was unable to, as I just could not run. Now I can, although I’m sure I couldn’t keep up with Miley or Jay. They run quite some distances, and I can only manage 5k on a good day. 

Anyway, back to backstage from the run, some of the guys had surfaced, venue shower and eat. I like catering at venues, I like food on hand. It makes things simple. It also means of course, that I don’t wander the streets looking for food and simultaneously discovering the local environment. But in Antwerp I did discover a castle and two ponds just from running about.

Anyway, Antwerp show day was thankfully less busy than Amsterdam. Jay was still recovering, he emerged from the bus later in the afternoon feeling better. The Trix backstage was underground in a corridor of black and red rooms, one room full of showers, one full of loos. Miley and I had taken over the Trix Instagram Stories for the day, so we grabbed bits of pictures for that, whilst I was doing other Rival Sons stuff. I tried to catch up on work and write a blog (which I posted) but I didn’t manage to cover everything. I guess you have to also be in the right headspace to write. Reflective and not stressed. Moreover, you need to remember! I remember having a lot of giggles the Antwerp day, good spirits backstage. I felt good that I’d made it out to have a run. Even though I’m only out on the road for a couple of weeks this time, its a cramped bus, and I’m not sure I’m so used to being around people and crowds all the time. Its nice to be alone for a while. If I feel like this after only a week (at the time), imagine what its like for the guys!

^^Dave backstage, Antwerp

Jay was feeling much stronger for the crowds in Antwerp that evening. Another sold out show, full of what felt like wonderful people. Derrick had also been under the weather, but he was feeling on good form for the Antwerp show, jumping back into the crowd, borrowing beers from the audience, searching for mermaids amongst the Rival Sons fans.

I’m getting confused about what nights were movie nights on the small portion of the tour I’ve been on, but so far we’ve watched two movies that I brought with me. My most favourite movie, Subway, by Luc Besson:

^^ French trailer (we watched the dubbed version)

One of the other movies i brought with me, was coincidentally an old favourite of Scott’s - Fantastic Planet from 1973. Scott actually had a band named Fantastic Planet, after the movie, if you look you may be able to find some recordings online. He said the band were pretty good.

We happily watched a movie (I think it was Subway) on the way to Hamburg, the last German date of the Teatro Fiasco tour.
