Let's see, where to pick up? Ah yes. Alabama. I'm gonna be honest, I was scared when we pulled up for our 2 night stay. But the people inside were pretty rad. We met a guy named "Big Dave" who wanted us to stay at his mansion, complete with golf driving range, and rooms for everyone. Oh, he used to go on the road with Metallica. And play pro football. And his wife is a eurosurgeon.
Yeah.....we stayed with the sound guy instead. (thanks, victor!)
We hit Atlanta next, which hit us right back with the worst storm they've had in 100 YEARS. Floods everywhere. 4 people dead. Let's just say that show wasn't sold out.
My favorite part of the tour came next, when we went to Tennessee. We spent time with our good buddies and labelmates Josh and Brandon Manis of the band Gamenight. They fucking rule and their mom makes great spaghetti. We played at Patrick Sullivans in Knoxville. Steve (The Shape/Mouth Movements) showed up and bought many drinks for us. Then he climbed into our van and broke some stuff. Don't tell him that though. It was funny.
Next we headed into North Carolina, where Zeke had lived for a few years. He saw lots of old friends and we played 3 shows. Luckily, superfan Brian Lutz opened his home to us, and we crashed on his floor. NC was awesome. I miss it already.
That's about it for week 2! Week 3 is (obviously) next. Miss you guys!
