WELL,HERE'S WHAT HAPPENED ON THE FLORIDA TRIP,

WE GOT OFF TO A GREAT START WITH ROB AND CHRIS DRIVING DOWN THE EQUIPMENT AND THE REST OF US FLYING OUT.

WE THOUGHT WE'D START WITH A FEW DRINKS AT THE AIRPORT TO CALM THE NERVES AND START OUR FUN,AND IN TRUE FISTICUFF FASHION A FEW TURNED INTO A FEW TOO MANY AND THEN SHOTS AND DOUBLES AND UH OH,WE'RE PRETTY BLITZED AT THIS POINT.THE PLANE RIDE TO ATLANTA AIRPORT WAS FUN AND ALTHOUGH PEOPLE LOOKED SCARED OF US,THEY KNEW WHO FISTICUFF WERE BY THE TIME THEY GOT OFF THE FLIGHT.NOW IN ATLANTA FOR A COUPLE HOURS WE DECIDED TO HIT THE BAR AGAIN.WHAT ELSE IS THERE TO DO ANYWAY?

APPARENTLY,THE AIRLINE TAKES BEING DRUNK AND LOUD VERY SERIOUSLY.WE WERE TOLD TO WAIT TO THE SIDE WHILE THE REST OF THE PASSENGERS GOT ON AND THEN WERE TOLD PASSENGERS WERE AFRAID TO FLY WITH US.MAYBE THEY THOUGHT PAUL WOULD SING THEM TO DEATH OR FISTICUFF WOULD BLUDGEON THEIR KIDS OR WHO KNOWS WHAT KIND OF FRIGHTENING SITUATION WE COULD PUT THEM IN,SO THEY DECIDED TO KEEP PAUL AND PAT OFF THE PLANE.GEE,WE DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING! HENCE THE REASON WE NEED OUR OWN FISTJET.WE'RE ROCK STARS PEOPLE!!!!!!DUH.LOL!

FORTUNATELY THEY LET THEM GET ON THE NEXT FLIGHT AN HOUR LATER SO WE ALL MADE IT THERE WITH JUST THAT MINOR SETBACK.WE WERE PRETTY GRUMPY AND TIRED SO WE WENT TO BED.THE NEXT DAY WE CHILAXED BY THE POOL,MET SOME OF THE OTHER BANDS AND HAD A GREAT TIME.WE WENT TO A NICE STEAKHOUSE AND HAD A VERY ENDEARING DINNER LIKE A NICE FISTIFAMILY.THAT NIGHT WAS THE PRE-PARTY AND BOY DID WE GET OUR PARTY ON!THE BANDS WERE GREAT AND WE ALL HAD A POOL PARTY BACK AT THE HOTEL LATER.WE ALL PARTIED TILL DAWN AND WERE RUINED THE NEXT DAY.FORTUNATELY WE WERE READY TO GO THAT NIGHT AND PLAY LIKE WE'VE NEVER PLAYED BEFORE.EVERYONE HAD THEIR GAMEFACE ON AND WERE STILL A LITTLE LUMPY BUT,WHEN WE HIT THE STAGE WE TORE IT UP!THE FASTEST SET WE'VE EVER DONE BUT WE GOT IT DONE.20 MINUTES OF FAST AND FURIOUS PLAYING OUR ASSES OFF AND THEN IT WAS OVER.ALL THE BANDS SHOULD BE SIGNED.THEY WERE ALL PHENOMENAL AND ALL DIFFERENT STYLES OF METAL.EVERYONE OF THEM BROUGHT THEIR A GAME.IT WAS TOUGH COMPETITION.WE LOST THE THING BY 1 POINT.IN TRUE FISTICUFF FASHION WE CAME IN 2ND.THERE WAS NO WAY WE COULD COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT.2ND OUT OF ALL THE BANDS AND GREAT BANDS AT THAT,MADE US VERY HAPPY.WE HAD GREAT REVIEWS FROM ALL THE JUDGES AND NOT ONE OUNCE OF CRITICISM FROM ANY OF THEM.WE MET TERRIFIC PEOPLE, AWESOME BANDS, THE VENUE AT BOUBON STREET WAS FANTASTIC,J ROCK AND PATTY GIRL GAVE US A GREAT GREAT OPPURTUNITY AND WE CAN'T THANK THEM ENOUGH FOR WHAT THEY DO.WE'LL  DAYDREAM ABOUT MAKING IT BACK DOWN THERE UNTIL WE DO,AND WE'LL KEEP PRESSING ON UNTIL OUR TIME COMES.

WE'RE ALL EXTREMELY TIRED AND COULD SLEEP FOR DAYS NOW.FORTUNATELY THERE WERE NO INCIDENTS ON THE WAY HOME ,BUT COMING BACK TO HURRICANE WINDS AND POWER OUTAGES MAKE US WISH WE COULD HAVE STAYED LONGER.THEN CHRIS AND ROB CALLED TO LET US KNOW THEY'RE STUCK IN WEST VIRGINIA WITH VAN PROBLEMS,SO LETS HOPE THEY GET HOME SAFELY AND WITHOUT ANYONE MAKING THEM SQUEAL LIKE A PIG BEHIND A SHACK! LOL!!

I KID,I KID.

WELL,THAT'S YOUR UPDATE AND NOW WE GOTTA START BOOKING SOME SHOWS AND GETTING THIS CD DONE.THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR BELIEVING IN US!
