3 States and Still Kickin’

Uncategorized | October 8th, 2012

I arrived in Coure D’Alene about an hour ago. There’s $133 in my wallet, got a slow leak in my rear driver’s side tire (think I popped the plug when I ran over my bass case the other day), spirits are high, and the vibe here at Calypsos Coffee is awesome! I can’t wait to play tonight. The show in Spokane was amazing, and definitely the best show of the tour so far. I played at the Ogre’s Den, which is this warehouse my buddy, Jeff, rents out. He threw a keggar, and considering I was up against the Koffin… Continue Reading →

Stranded? Don’t think so.

Really enjoying this tour. Spent the better part of yesterday doing a photo shoot with my friend, Rachel. Really have been wanting to update the website with pictures for quite some time now. She took me out to this old abandoned chemical plant for a few hours. Accidentally ran over Sam’s case while moving my truck to a better location.

Guess that’s the bottom line… Continue Reading →

So tour begins…

Still feeling pretty tired. Coming up close towards 3 months of sobriety now, and other than the occasional freak out day, I’m actually really enjoying it. Doesn’t mean I don’t like the party atmosphere though. Threw a house show Saturday, which meant spending the day prior cleaning my house for 12 hours, then waking up at 8:30am the day of the party to get an early start on errands before the party started at 2pm. Had a 10am appointment at Canopy World to get a new lock installed on my canopy, and got new hydrolic lifter thingys for the back… Continue Reading →
