Danko Jones On A Train Euro Bound

We've heard that European women are easy (Or is that just the North American women on Kontiki Euro bus tours and "finding themselves" backpackers?).

At any rate, those Euro gals should prepare their best old world charms because the Mocha Madness, the Caramel Kamakazi, the Butterscotch Bandit, the man himself, Danko Jones will be heading across the pond to perform some gigs starting in June. This probably has something to do with the fact they've just released the album I'm Alive And Im On Fire through Swedish hardcore label, Bad Taste, a label who seem to have as many Canadians on their roster as Swedes.

We're quite uncertain the effects of letting Danko loose in a country full of naive, yet sexually liberated blonde women, but it does sort of make one recall the bear vs. bunny speech in Swingers. It should also be noted that Danko was once quoted as saying "She's sooo good" of Nina from the Cardigans, one Swede who should definitely be on the lookout.

Here are the Euro dates, complete with a central Ontario warm-up festival appearance:
May 19 Nelles Corners, ON @ Cayuga Speedway
June 1 Lund, Sweden @ The Merejet
June 2 Malmo, Sweden @ Mollefesten festival
June 15 Hultsfredfestivalen, Sweden @ Hultsfredfestivalen
July 1 Rotterdam, Netherlands @ Metrolpolis festival
