True North (http://www.truenorthsucks.com), just got back from the most fucked Europe tour ever to support the recent release of their 2nd album on No Idea " Somewhat Similar". To make things short, they got robbed in Miami before leaving. The crooks took all their passports, some clothes, $3,000 in merch and some specs. They broke down outside of London and missed two weeks of tour. Got held up and interrogated at a boarder crossing. The rubber gloves were out and they kept asking them "How big is your sack?" Then Dave was held hostage by a hospital because he busted a bunch of blood vessels in his leg in a freak basketball accident and had to have an emergency operation to drain the crap from his fat leg. Without insurance or loot to pay for it I guess they thought having a strange little American fellow live in a hospital bed was better than letting him leave to go home. He was finally let free hours before leaving to return home. All and all though, they said it was a great time and they will be back in full form ready to tour the states soon and europe again. This time they will stay far away from the curse of the ponch.
