YACHT: "TOUR: UT OH"

TOUR: UT OH

Ut-oh.. I think I really screwed up or missed something or something. AGH. Dudes, I'm in sort of deep, deep trouble. I was counting on using AirHitch to get home and, as of right now, it's not working out. They don't have any flights to Portland or Seattle, but there might be something from Frankfurt, Germany in a couple days... This doesn't really work at all.. I only have �20 to my name.. which is roughly $40. Dudes! What do I do? Do you have any tricks? Do you have a family member in the travel industry? Please tell me if you do.. Luke-y Dragon is going to lend me the money to fly home.. but that was when a ticket was going to be something like $300. How much is this going to cost? Rob is in the same boat, so we're trying and trying to find deals on the internet... our new idea is to go to the airport and try and talk to someone there and get a standby flight for cheap.

Any help or suggestions or ANYTHING you have, are greatly appreciated.. If you are rich and want to support art in a very weird and unusual way.. help me get home. I'm in London and I don't have enough money to live here for very long at all.

This is sort of scary.

So, since I left you last we've played shows in Leeds, Stoke and London. They were all really good and we met some really amazing people. Thank you for putting us up in your homes, driving us some hours and taking such incredible care of us. We're forever grateful and you'll have the same treatment when you come to our homes.

I'll post some pictures and write some more about these shows when I'm not so freaked out about my new homeless life in London. Luckily there are nice people like Nick that let us stay in their homes and use their internet connections. Love to you, dudes.

So yeah, any ideas?

On top of this.. my cell phone bill is very much past-due, so I can't send any more text messages. I can receive them, so send them my way if you have any ideas, advice, love or anything positive to share. (I can only get 500 characters at a time)

I REQUEST OF THE UNIVERSE TO GET ME HOME TO PORTLAND FROM LONDON TOMORROW OR THE NEXT DAY AT THE LATEST.

If I make it home on time I'll be playing at the PDX POP FESTIVAL on the 11th at 8PM sharp. Check out my "bio" page with awesome exclusive photo from a bedroom I stayed in with Bobby Birdman in �rhus, Denmark. That tiger was so mean.

One last thing.. though it's not complete, the new website for The Blow and the art of Khaela Maricich is up and running. Khaela was over here in this Europe and we didn't even get to say hello. Sad.

Truly,
Jona

where else does Airhitch fly to in the states?
maybe you can take it to the closest you can get to portland, and then take a cheap flight from there?

good luck.

Hi Jona, I hope you sort your travel dilemma's, It was good to have you come to Stoke on Trent, even if the evening was a little weird, well it felt odd. Music and dancing was great. I hope you enjoyed it.
Sorry I didn't get to talk more on the night. You guys seemed to dissapear right at the end really quickly.
Take Care
Dan (the guy who was first on )
