'What happens on tour, stays on tour...'Tom arrives with four words to drag Dave out of his Charlotte-left-me funk.Battle of the bands. What follows is a meeting with the fabulous Amelia, guitar player and geek extraordinaire, wearer of splendidly sexy clothes and, unfortunately, member of the only band who might challenge them to the top spot.Dave, unburdened by his usually dubious morals, decides the only option is to kill one of the band members. He opts for the singer cos, you know, singers...But the tour is only the beginning of their troubles. Tours are never simple things at the best of times and when the headline band are as mysterious and downright rock and roll as Lightning, you know something crazy is going to happen.A number of crazy things do happen, not least Tom getting his end away with two rather enthusiastic groupies, another trip to Fae, in which Tom gets his end away with two rather enthusiastic Fae, Darren getting a girlfriend, and Dave getting not very much of anything.And as if that wasn't enough, Edward is still out there, as is the Blood King.NZK VI is another whirlwind trip through crazyville with the kind of tour guides you'd cross the street to avoid. And Darren.
