They threw fruit to the crowd in Glasgow. They brought their version of Punk to London. They took weird and wonderful to Iceland; the place Bjork lives. And the thing is they are not punching above their weight. Glasgow Loves them, London Loves them, I can’t speak for Icelanders but they probably see them as one of their own. Chai proved whatever the tour chucked at them, they wouldn’t only cope, but would excel. From the first It’s Showtime to the last encore song, ever the professional *insert Thesaurus here. The answer to What are Chai is 43.
Just a thought did they wear the new outfits in Iceland? It’s 2 Degrees in Iceland.
I think I’ve chosen cantankerous for old age.
I don't have the rights to play any Chai on my website so instead why not listen to Drum Machines Can't Dance while you read. If you like please click on Home to check out more of my tunes.

No time to hang about I had to get to Waterloo before 12 or my day ticket would turn in to a pumpkin. Just time to grab a run schedule off the wall, to the amusement of the couple behind me (I think I beat them to it) My last tick on the London Bucket List, a ride in a Black Cab. Shoreditch to Waterloo £15. I was right, Edinburgh Taxis are the most expensive in Britain. Contrary to what I’d heard he wasn’t chatty. Was a good safe driver and got me there well on time though so top marks on trip adviser (and a £5 tip)

To sum up Chai’s Tour…
“If you were playing in Iceland, you know its going to be really expensive, you’re not going to make a lot of money out of it, because you have to fly all the gear in and all the gear back out. But bands do still come, like Justin Timberlake came, and he just wanted to come, just because he was excited to be in Iceland but I think you kinda have to have that mind set.” Ragnar "Raggi" Þórhallsson Of Monsters and Men.
