It's been a busy but exciting past few months for us all in bond and we've certainly stocked up on our frequent flyer miles! We've done two concert tours around the USA, as well as concerts throughout Asia, in Puerto Rico, and done our first concert tour of Australia. We've had so many fantastic experiences and we've been able to meet many of our fans from across the world. We didn't know if we would be able to last six weeks on a tour bus across the US but we're happy to say it was alot of fun! The post-concert tour bus disco dancing resulted in many incriminating photos which may come in useful for blackmail purposes in the future.

We've had our fair share of early morning breakfast tv and this sleep deprivation resulted in many strange purchases from the malls we visited across America. We did many post-concert signing sessions throughout America which was a great way to meet and chat with our fans, includng many young kids who had recently taken up string instruments. This was really rewarding. A highlight of our tour was looking down in the track 'Fly Away' at our Los Angeles concert to see Bruce Willis sitting in the front row! We managed to hold ourselves back from yelling " Yippee - ki yay!" on the microphone during the concert, but only just.

Our tour of Asia was as always great fun for us. It's amazing for us that although it's been over four years since our first album came out, we still have such loyal fans in Asia. The Asian audiences love dancing and going crazy by the end of our shows, which gives us a fantastic vibe up on stage. We even notice that some people come to every concert and even sit in the same seat in the audience up the front!

Our Australian tour was sold out which felt amazing, especially for Haylie and Tania as Aussies. 'Classified' has gone almost double Platinum over there and it's been number 1 in the pop charts. We had such a warm welcome in Australia, and our final concert in the Sydney Opera House was a highlight. We've since been back as the Ambassadors of the Formula One Australian Grand Prix which was great fun as we love fast cars!

All our love,
