DIY Presents Tour 2014 Tour Diary: Shy Nature
The band’s time on the DIY Presents Tour 2014… in photo form.
Late October saw Flyte and Shy Nature head out on the DIY Presents Tour 2014 in association with PledgeMusic - six free-entry shows which culminated in Saturday’s all-dayer at The Laundry in London.
“We had some time [to hang out], the main one was after Nottingham,” remembers drummer Matthew Paisley of the tour. We bonded that night over some whiskey. The two Will’s wrestled, Will [Taylor] from Flyte and Will [Blackaby] from Shy Nature.”
“I’ve actually got quite a good picture of mid-wrestling, where they’re squaring off,” laughs Gary Saloman. “I think someone executed a stunner, and it was pretty much game over after that.”
Read up on all the goings on at the all-dayer here, see photos from all the band’s sets this way, and find out what went down at the Reading date of the tour over here.
Here, Shy Nature have sent us a pictorial tour diary of the whole tour, featuring crowds in Leeds, hotel beds, inter-band group hugs and a wall.
