*this is going to be the first in a series of tour journal entries*

                   I can hear the alarm go off in the room next door. This hotel is the same as the others, funny the way that always seems to wake me up. Obviously the bed sheet is completely skewn to a point of nearly not being on the bed at all. There s a little bit of sun coming through the window, but I've made that mistake before. I know its cold outside. I can't get Man in the Mirror out of my head for some reason and I'm really hungry. I think I saw a 24 hour Tim Hortans Coffee down the street last night. Man I love that place.

                  So tonight its off to Madison Wisconsin for a show. I've been there this time of year and I remember how cold it is. I don't know why I always seem to put myself up this North every year at this time but oh well, I know it'll be fun. I have decided to start a series of journal entries to give you a little insight into my life on the road. Granted I have been on tour for nearly a year straight but now is as good a time as any to start I guess. Maybe I'll throw in some flashback stories to make up for it in the coming blogs. I will be writing these often.

                  I need to leave in about ten minutes, just wondering if there is enough time for a second shower, ya know, really get my monies worth.....haha. Probably not, my watch is never right so I guess I have to leave. 

peace
