I had heard about the bean before...

It's hard to surpass the last post, so I'll just type what has happend over the past few days. We left Myrtle Beach and drove to Atlanta, GA where we stayed at a super nice apartment in the midtown area over looking the city on the 28th floor. It was awesome. It was a longer drive to Atlanta so we just made some pasta and tots then fell asleep. The following day we ate some of the best chinese food ever at a place called Lucky Buddah. We drove to Birmingham, AL in a wicked thunderstorm and played at a sweet spot named Cave9. Not many kids came out but that has kind of been the feeling of this tour so whatever. We met some awesome people and it was fun to finally play a show after 3 days.

Hercules and JVA split up and stayed at 2 seperate houses. We stayed at one of the nicest houses ever inhabited by a 20 year old kid named Sam. It looked like a house that should be on the OC or something, really ritzy with all wood floors and radiohead posters everywhere. The boys stayed up late gettin high and we watched CKY4 which is amazing. I forgot how good those movies were. After that we poped in The Big Lebowski and drifted off to sleep.

There's not a whole lot to say about yesterday. We had a show get called off in Clarksville, TN so we decided to make the 10 hour trek to Fayetteville, AR where we will be playing tonight. The drive was long and most of it was through a pretty hellish snow storm. We finally arrived in Fayetteville, 2 hours ahead of the jv all stars. We drove around looking for something to do then the boys decided to get some alcohol and get drunk the in the parking lot of where we were staying. We sat there for about an hour, getting drunk (not me of course xxx) and exchanging stories of our first sexual experiences. If you haven't heard any of these yet . . . get at all of us because they were all some of the funniest stories I have ever heard.

We finally got a call from Tato (yes . . . like potato) saying he was finally home from his terrible 10am-12am shift at work. I was having trouble seeing him outside of his apartment complex and he finally told me "I'm in a fucking tie dye shirt man, I'm sticking out like a soar thumb." Blew my mind. JVA finally arrived and it was so sweet because we hadn't seen any of them for over 24 hours. Everyone decided it would be a good idea to smoke salvia . . . and was it ever a good idea. I won't go into detail on the stories, I wouldn't want to get anyone in trouble with their friends family or girlfriends (or ex girlfriends . . . i know you're reading this) but here are some of the reactions and quotes...

1) "I feel like I'm made out of popsicle sticks. My whole body is popsicle sticks! My tongue is like two popsicle sticks. I need to go smoke a ciggarette but I don't know if I can because my tongue is popsicle sticks."

2) *in a high pitched voice while lying down and laughing* "you're all outside. I'm in a orange room outside of an orange building. The walls keep flying by but you all stay the same. It's like a Caseys General Store."

3) "I'm seeing everyone in blinds, it's like you were all put into adobe photoshop and each one of you has a different effect put on you."


4) "Oh no."

5) "uhhhhhhhhh...."

6) "I was afraid I was going to be popsicle stick man forever. Everyone went stiff and my arms felt like 2x4's."

7) "Everyone is going down. Now everything is going up. Even everything you're saying is going up"

8) "Every surface of my body just became solid."

9) "you don't want no part of this shit."


10) "we're all seeing different things because we're all different people."

Those are just SOME of the amazing quotes I can remember from last night. We then threw on Wake Up Ron Burgundy and I passed out right away. 6 days left of tour. We luckily have shows every day now for this final week which is good. Hercules is running out of funds I think. Whatever though. Go to the show in Lincoln Friday. Party at Ghost House after. Big whemmy!
