i am super exhausted...the main reason is because we're having fun, and we'll sleep when we're dead, but you know how it goes.
we're two days into the tour, and it's been a total blast so far with lots of belly-pressing with buddies, and no time to rest. i'm hanging here at T-Rex with some of our boys from Support The Troopz (be warned...NSFW, unless you work in a strip club, or a tattoo parlor) and i'm going to fall asleep here real soon...let's make this quick!
Team Ethic, our friends in Ypsilanti (or if you're Zae, "Ipzillanties"), who put on a great show for us at Woodruff's. We met some way-cool people at this show!
Zae got tired of packing his stuff up in the van night after night, so he came up with a new system where he uses magic, rather than brute force, to load and unload his stuff. basically, what he does is concentrate real hard, invoking the powers of baphomet - the goat of mendes - making his drums disappear into thin air, one-by-one. then, at the next show he just does the same in reverse to conjure the drums back up, no big whoop. after this scene you're seeing here, he also did these dishes using concentration magic, just to be nice.
after the show we went back to aaron's place (our favorite haunt) after a brief detour to jimmy john's. we were all pretty tired, except for Zae, because he didn't use any energy to load equipment, so we all sat there while he played every eagle eye cherry song he knew on this acoustic guitar.
bryant couldn't stand it, so he got out his PJs, slammed his suitcase closed and said "tomorrow I'LL be gone!" before he stormed out and slept in the van. we never saw him again...
we got approximately 4 hours of sleep before we had to get up and drive to marion for the Spotted Cow Festival. we played at 1pm, but it was great nonetheless.
here's a ticked-off bryant trying to steal our merch after he stormed off the night before. we talked him down, and he agreed to finish the tour, but i think we're on thin ice...
this is what the festival looked like. KeRaAaZy!! these are our buddies from Years tearing it up.
we saw this. it's a space-rocket-racecar-time-machine, duh. we passed this dude on our way from marion to muncie for show #2 of the day. here's john glenn giving us a wave right before he lifted off and flew off into the sunset.
Zae is colorblind, so he thought Dan was pulling his leg when he told him the truth about the wall behind him here. things got real confusing...
Chad Serhal w/ She Does Is Magic live at VGR. they slayed, for real.
Derek "No Shirt" Miller, being irresponsible.
after that, my camera died, but ITFOW played after the Troopz and it was great. Long Live VILLAGE GREEN RECORDS!!! We'll see you tomorrow...........................................
