Writing to reach you

Travis haven't troubled a stage since Live8. Some of us quite like it that way - after all, what's the point of keeping a Snow Patrol and a Travis in the same entertainment industry? Nobody has that much trouble sleeping.

Nevertheless, Travis are determined to return to active gigging, and are threatening to hit the stage at the following fine venues:

March 20th - Camden KoKo
21st - Glasgow ABC
22nd - Warrington Parr Hall

Of course, we're quite tempted to buy as many tickets as we can, and bus loads of people in to just stand and pull horrified faces when they play new stuff. That might spare us the new album, The Boy With No Name, or at least roll it back past May.
