06/30/05 HOLY CRAP I am way behind. But I do believe I will take a “bye“ or a “get out of jail“ or a “free pass“ or a “we‘ll allow it“ this week. I was home. Sort of…well I was near home and the like. This means I was kinda busy so shut up and we‘ll catch up!Last you knew we were in Las Cruces N.M. waiting (day off) to play there…well we did. AND it was KILLER! The punkers in this part of the country are (from what I can tell) starved for shows, because when one comes to town they go off! Seriously this was one energetic group of singing jumping freaking out freaks. We played kinda late in the day so it was pretty nice out compared to earlier…..And that gave everybody a bit of extra somethin‘ to go off with…really though awesome show.
We then packed it up and rolled out to the face of the sun…..oh I mean Peoria, AZ. Ok, I have been bitching and moaning about “oh it was so hot and gosh I was sweating and wow the sun is out…“ Well I was in for it here…...one word for AZ…..115degreesistoofuckinghot. We played at 2:30 in a baseball field type of scene so at least there was grass for you guys to jump around on….we had a great time anyway and were stoked on all the energy coming off of the crowd…now this is where you can get bummed at me for not keeping up on these journal entries…..I can‘t remember the set list. Sorry, maybe someone that was at the show will remember the two “vault“ songs we played on this day. Dexter and I went out to the t-shirt tent and hung out with our man Drew and a few hundred punkers looking for a picture or a signature from either Dexter or myself…...fun.
SAN DIEGO…...hey I‘m from here! That‘s right I grew up in the San Diego land of sun, surf and sand and now also traffic. I spent about 4 hours trying to get to Chula Vista and barely made it on time. We had an amazing show though, starting at 6:30 in the evening. We played “Get It Right“ and I think “Gotta Get Away”.....again, if anyone out there remembers otherwise…...you‘re probably right. Anyway, tons of fun packed into a tight little 30 minute set. And hey, I get to sleep in my own bed tonight!
