I can only speak for Scotland, but i'm sure it's a nation-wide epidemic. I'm all game for promoting by means of hard touring, but seriously!!

2 x Barrowland shows
3 x ABC shows
1 x Carling Academy show
1 x Liquid Room show
1 x SECC (Gwen Stefani support)
1 x Indian Summer appearance
1 x T In The Park appearance
1 x Connect festivl appearance

and now they're playing Electric Picnic, which was largely similar to the Connect line-up last year, so Scotland may get yet another show.

It's out of control!
