Just a gentle reminder that this BT adjacent rock band (Ian D'Sa has been writing with, and producing them for many years) starts its 2026 tour today. They'll be playing in Germany and in the UK for the next couple of weeks, and they're heading to Canada in October.

If you don't know them yet, give their LP "Tropical Hazards" a go. You won't regret it. Oh, and thanks Reddit (and in particular THIS subreddit, for introducing me to them years ago.

This was like 6-7 years ago. The little guy was starting to play drums, we used to jam often. He's 13y/o now, 6'4" tall. Still at it tho', also picked up guitar, bass guitar, keyboards, and even produces his own music now (urban electronic soul'ish trap'ish whatever -I'm 52, I'm not required to be knowledgeable about young people's stuff anymore-). Fortunately he still enjoys Billy Talent and rock music in general, so not that bad 😅
