Life on the road

The one in which Ryan and his band visit the craziest night club they’ve ever been in.

Ryan Sheridan will play our Sunday Sessions Live 2 gig at Whelan’s on October 22 (free tickets here). The Monaghan man is currently on tour in China and he’s been keeping us updated every step of the way.

Day 5

Last night we went to the craziest night club I have ever been in. I can’t even describe it in words, but a video might help. You see that band doing drinking games on stage? Yeah, we were up next… We played a short set and people were going insane. It was LOUD.

This morning we went to a 2000 year old tomb of an emperor of the Han Dynasty. It was amazing to see the remains of such an old culture. The way they made things was incredibly detailed and oddly similar to the way they make things these days. Alex Wang from Mayson guitars is continuing that trend.

So right now we are at a natural hot spring enjoying dinner as the sun sets. I’m going to go to a milk jacuzzi, that apparently helps your muscles!? So I’ll be ordering a few extra pints of Avonmore when I get home!IMG-20151008-WA0020
