(copied from our
blogspot - which is where i'll be doing all tour postings. i'll try to copy them over here but right now internet time is a little difficult so things will go up on blogspot first.)
so we made it through our flight to the east coast with no real
problems. had a little bit of a snag with the luggage weight, but
managed to make it through that without getting overcharged. made it to
dulles, where keith (worlds best tour manager) picked us up in the
greatest minivan of all time. after a few minor detours, we made it
over to dinner, and then headed out to richmond. i have to say,
virginia has more cops than any other place i've ever been. made it to
the hotel with no issues, and crashed out.
the
richmond gig was really amazing, we had such a great time. if you're
ever in richmond, i definitely recommend you check 'fallout' (the
venue), it was awesome. a really great club, and we met a ton of great
people. did a really good interview backstage, i think we got some good
questions, and i think we gave some really good answers.
we
had a few minor technical hurdles, mostly with the bass guitar strap
falling apart during the set. but we powered through it, and even did a
special thing during "don't be afraid" that we'd never done before,
kind of an 'mtv unplugged' type of presentation.
after the
show we went to a little afterparty scene, where i got a little too
drunk, and left my coat. oops! well, it'll get sent to ned's place in
chicago so i'll have it for europe.
this morning, got up, had a
great lunch, and hit the road for delaware. staying with da5ids
parents, who fed us a crazy awesome dinner and now it's time to crash
out. i am going on 36 hours with no sleep, can't think anymore and
keith is busting my balls about my slippers.
we'd like to thank
all the awesome people in richmond that we met: jackie, megan, willian,
shawn, scott from
rvafreaks.com, tucker, project wiretrapper, myotis,
jessica, sarah, and everyone else we may have forgotten.
here is an awesome picture of all of our new richmond friends!! we'll see you next time!
