I Typed For Miles
Im the worst at this. I totally said I would blog everyday on tour and I have completly forgot. Just got called out by my mom, love you mom!
So heres whats been going on.
day 1- san antonio
Picked up Soul Control from the airport and took them to eat at Green, they have a couple vegans and a vegetarian. We hung out for a bit then went to pickup the gear and head to the show. Our shirts didnt come in ontime for the san antonio show so we had to pick them up the next day.
day 2- corpus christi
HOT! No air conditioning venue is terrible, it was so hot and humid the entire show. Good turnout and the promoter brought us thai food and pizza. We are getting along great with Soul Control at this point. Putting 10 guys in one van could be disasterous. We stayed with Shaggy from the golden age.
day 3- houston,tx
We roll up to the show around 6, a few kids outside. but mostly all our friends. On the way a rock flew up and chipped the windshield, we called a mobile windshield repair and had it fixed. Bill gave us his life story. Oh I forgot to mention the GPS! Anthony from Soul Control brought his gps. It has been awesome, we are getting spoiled with it. I have to get one of these. Show was awesome, kids had fun and we got paid well.
Day 4- dallas
We woke up in Houston and got cicis, which is the best way to start a day! We head out to Dallas, get to the venue first and walk around downtown a little bit until someone gets there to open the doors. Show was the last one at red blood club so it was pretty insane. alot of kids came out. We have started talking crap to Soul Control about basketball and how we can beat them. Theres going to be a huge grudge match happening soon. We can totally take them in basketball though.
day 5- nashville,tn!
We drove 11 hours to nashville. When we got there we went to Mike Thrasheds house and unloaded our bags. Then we went to his school gym to play basketball, they had swimming, raquetball,etc. We get there ready to beat soul control and there is a huge basketball camp going on so we cant play. Huge bummer...so we went swimming, not a total loss. Show in nashville was really good, we get better reactions everytime we come back.
day 6 - atlanta,ga
Atlanta!! I love coming to Atlanta, so many good friends here. The show was alot of fun but we had to take off right afterwards for Lemoyne, Pa.
day7- lemoyne, pa
We are driving right now to Lemoyne, on the road somewhere in Pa. This part of the country is beautiful, so green and hilly. Today is a little overcast and its about 70 outside. Such a nice change from Texas.
Ill post more stuff tonight

Tonight is our tour kickoff show in San Antonio, hopefully our scene here doesn't disappoint like it normally does. I will be updating this more when I'm on tour, I'm going to try and write in it everyday and post pictures when I can.
I'm out to the airport to pick up soul control
last night I finished the Foundation artwork for their 7"
i'm pretty stoked on it.
This is the cover/back
covers on the top, backs on the bottom. it will fold right after the red starts, so part of the back will be bleeding onto the front.
Here's the insert.

Spinning and Spinning
So today my Mom, Jessica and Jake came up to San Antonio, they met Uncle Tim and Lenora here. Jessica and Jake are going with Tim to the beach in Corpus for a week. We just had a nice late lunch at Demo's Greek Food, it was really good to see everyone.
Last night me and Steph played an acoustic show at Music Town on Broadway. It was really fun, we did a couple Jimmy Eat World covers ("your new aesthetic, believe in what you want") both of the record Clarity..which is my favorite record of all time. So I had a really good time, it was Dance of Days record release, they played so well. I'm really proud of that band, such good guys and they really work hard.
A couple of days ago I got a music tattoo, I've been wanting one forever and could never decide on something but I finally figured out what I wanted to get.
I'm really stoked about it. That's all for now.
