8-14-10 Natalie’s Grandmother died this morning. I’m feeling really guilty that I’m out here on the road living it up and not there for her. It makes me second guess the way I live my life. So many people are there for me when I need them. My family, Natalie, friends and even my coworkers [...]
Days 7, 8, 9 – Orangevale, San Fransisco, San Jose
It’s been a few days since I’ve had the chance to write. Actually that’s a lie Ive had chances I was either to tired or just didn’t feel like it. Reno’s show was uneventful. The show was good and we played well. It was our first show with The Ataris and it was good to [...]
Day 6 – Reno NV

It was pretty incredible. Tonight is our first show with The Ataris and the last of the really terribly long drives. We spent close [...]
Day 4 – Denver CO

Day 3 – Des Moines

Day 2 – Chicago
I know it’s only the second day of tour but I feel like I’m having a harder time than usual to get used to road life. Hopefully by tomorrow I’ll have my tour legs. We stayed at some girls house last night. Her name is Christmas, no it really is. Besides letting us sleep on [...]
Day 1 – Pittsburgh
Today is the first day of a long tour. I wasn’t exactly looking forward to it but now that we are in the van it feels good. It feels right. The worries and the stress of every day life are miles behind, there’s nothing but the miles and shows ahead of me. I’m enjoying the [...]
