so, three days off in nebraska, turned into one day off, followed by a show, and another day off. the show was at a biker bar turned 'youth hang out' called rebels. good show, great show. after squads set, we did an allstar jam of rocking in the free world, and the most famous ramones song ever. good times across the board. update later tonight.

eveytime i get on this thing, someone comes up to me and says in a really boyish voice: 'dear mom, tour is great.' i normally get rushed off the computer while every one else spends like 20 minutes on it. ok. i don't remember were i left off, so this is going to overlap ( Read more... )

so, back in little rock. lets back track. from st. paul, we went to omaha. we played with ANOTHER emo band. i like this stuff, but every night, with play with a vagarant-esque band. it gets old. anyways, the kick finally had a good show. we did really well, and for the first time, i got lost in the moment. then, we went back to the hotel. oh yeah, ( Read more... )

twin cities tonight. last night was a show in clevland, it was sub par but the guys were stoked. we drove through the night to get here, and went to the mall of america, and saw the ring. it was cool. but, i am so ready to go on tour with MY band.

we had a 12 hour drive from philly to flint, mi. i slept for most of it. we played at what i call a "nu-metal biker bar." it was wierd. the mens bathroom was covered with centerfolds from easyriders magazine. so, many of us used the girls room. it was all new stuff(chairs,tables,stage), and they were bumpin nu-metal tunes all night between bands.

i leave tommorow. i have never felt more passive/confused/numb/robot(and a little bit of that weird 'tired/restless' crap) in my life, than the last month or so. i am hoping, praying(finally), begging that this "tour" will wake me up. i have no emotion to give to anything but looking back. that's no way to live ( Read more... )

not much to be pissed or excited about. we played two shows this weekend. in santa fe, and albuquerque. they were knee-ko's last shows. sad i guess, but still all good. we were way late(as expected) to the show in santa fe. we pissed a few off. what is this? the YMCA? it's punk rock jabronie. and then, me tommy and tyler played hockey at outpost ( Read more... )
