come the way you just described. You don't really write it, you just happened to be there when it's born. (Laughs) But I write all the time. Sometimes they come out of thin air, other times it's an oil drilling expedition. A lot of times I come up with stuff when I'm not trying to - taking a shower, bush hogging the field, cooking- then something just happens, and you're on one. I usually just put down the rough idea on some type of recorder, usually my iPhone. I wrote 70% of Haywire Riot’s riffs and lyrics on that thing. It's great for that.
So whats in the immediate future for
fans who want to hear and see Skinny Molly live in concert, and is there an- other European tour in the works yet? We have some dates coming up in the mid-
west and south in the States before we head over to Europe in June. We're going through the UK and France this June, and we're going to run through Finland in July with Monsters Of Southern Rock. The whole thing will be about four weeks. We'll come back to the States in the mid-summer and be doing dates with Monsters Of Southern Rock up until we go back to Europe in October. Starting Oct 24 2013 we will play the Czech Republic, Ger- many, Belgium, Holland, France and finish up in the UK. That's gonna be the last of the Haywire Riot tour. We will be cutting a new CD throughout the rest of this year for release next Spring, 2014, which is the time we are looking at going to Japan for a week or two.

merchandise, you know, all things Skinny Molly! I have to give a lot of credit to our web chick in residence, Sylvia Blaauw. She comes up with some great ideas and listens to all of the band's ideas too. She gave me a good kick in the butt
to get it going, by working her own tail off in order to help us have a good presence on the web. Soon we are gonna have a tour diary, podcasts, blogs, the fans can submit show re- views, all kinds of stuff we didn't think of be- fore. Hope fans will go check it out. •
