Yay! We're hitting the next show in this run out, and we're all pretty much dying from whatever it is we all caught. No, no, it's not herpes, get your mind out of the gutter. You can't die from herpes. But it might be syphilis. We had to make a quick cookie tossing stop for Chris (he got it bad), and we're spending way too much money on Kleenex.
The Lil' Reds show went well, nice place. It was a pleasure to meet Technology Vs. Horse, they were hilarious. The Hamilton Collective show... It was kind of in a barn with dirt on the floor. Not a dirt floor, the dirt was actually hauled into the building for a previous event. But despite appearances, we played to an enthusiastic crowd.
Special thanks to Meg for the cookies and a place to crash. Also to James and Brittney for the spaghetti and the hospitality. Nothing better then a place to sleep after a show that isn't the back of a van.

Just for the written record, me tossing my cookies had nothing to do with the plague we all caught, but was due to my own stupidity. That morning I took a whole bunch of pills (ibuprofin, cold medicine, sinus medicine, cough medicine, and vitamin C) without eating a speck of food. Just eating ibuprofin on an empty stomach can cause you to chuck, so you can imagine what the combination of all of the above is like.
It's a shame that nobody got a chance to record the event on video for posterity. Now nobody will get a chance to see/hear my debut as a death metal vocalist. Rrrraawwraarrawrrrawrarrrgh!
