somebody once told me the battle cast is going on a tour in the uk it worked it did we were looking really cool caitlin went to so much school and and and jamie was having a good day. Well, the shows start coming and they don't stop coming until about a week and a half. And then they stop coming. We're going to the UK for a week and a half at the end of May. And I think that that was enough to isolate our entire listener base. We've been wanting to do this for a really long time. I believe the last time we went to the UK, we did some shows in London like five years ago. And now, baby, we're heading back. These are the first dates. There may be some more dates to come. But we

wanted to share it with you the second the tickets were on sale. So we're going to be kicking things off in London. Ever heard of it? It's the setting of What a Girl Wants. And I think no other movies. Certainly not Paddington. Oh, wait. Anyway, we are doing a string of shows. And yes, the song that we just sung does suggest that we are only doing Shrek, but that's not true. We are doing our first show in London on May 22nd, 6.30. That is Shrek. Yes. That's a Shrek show. We have to start somewhere where we feel safe.

Yes. But don't worry. Our second show is also one of our favorite movies because our second show is Titanic. Yeah. So we're going to be, if you've been to our live shows, they're super fun. We always dress up and get really silly and we chose two of our favorite movies to cover

so that we could get extra silly. Because yeah, we've already covered them, but it's time to cover them again. But have we covered them in cute little outfits? No. And that's what we hope to explore in the tour. Then on May 24th, we're going to be in Oxford at the old fire station, which sounds scary.

It is actually a really beautiful venue. We are covering Titanic again. Yes. I know that we're going gonna manage to take a boat everywhere which is interesting. Then we're heading over to Scotland, ever heard of it? Over to Edinburgh. That's May

26th. At Monkey Barrel, one of my favorite venues in Edinburgh, so fun. And there we are covering... Shrek! I mean... We have to. Please don't be mad at us i feel like we have something to add it makes sense when you think about it we should have a shrek off who sounds most shrek off's gun well we're gonna oh i got you wow shrek off swamp okay if you have shrek off puts you in the swamp

you're gonna be shrek and then we're closing out the tour for now on may 28th in manchester at frog and bucket really amazing venue names in the uk and And that's also a Titanic show. Yes. And we're working on another show in another city. We'll let you know. But if you live in those areas, we haven't been there in five years. And most of these places we're going to for the first time.

So get your tickets quickly. It's going to be a really, really fun time. And we love doing the live shows. And we always have special merch. We do meet and greets. We don't get out there very much. So we want to meet everybody and hang out and be really toxic and parasocial together. Yes, let's do it.
