This time we hear from Thomas, who seems to be sittin' on top of the world... looking down on creation from an Applebee's:
This time I'm checking in from North Dakota, at an Applebee's to be exact! We are on our way home and decided to brave the conditions to try to get our van home that is limping through the 28 hour drive. Crossing our fingers to say the least... The show last night in Dekalb was completely awesome. It was great to see so many people, so excited, after not being there in over 4 years. I forgot how much fun playing small small places can be, when everyone in the room wants to be there. Other highlights of the last week was the last show with friends Midnight Masses, The Dear Hunter, and Thursday, whom we'd all like to thank dearly for their support and positive influence on us and everyone on the tour. Also we had a very, very beautiful day off @ UNC with some old friends that we've needed to spend some time with for an extremely long amount of time. It was a trip simply put. I have a new idea of NC after experiencing the closeness of that community and how open-minded and fun almost everyone we met seemed to be. I'll wrap this up with a quote. "The simplest things are the ones that bring the most joy, it's just hard to see if you don't take the time to pay attention to the small details in life..." - Thomas <3
I've come to find that Orlando, Florida is a land of many many wonders. There is a considerable amount of "trickery" involved. All is well. Atlanta welcomed us with hella rain. Not just the kind of rain that drizzles, but rain that drizzles and plops all at the same time. There was also traffic involved. Really really bad traffic. We played the "Heaven" stage in ATL. Meat Puppets played the "Hell" stage. Apparently they kicked major tail. Geoff, from Thursday, was physically assaulted in Raleigh, NC. I literally could not believe it. It was a bummer, you know? People are super jacked up these days. We drove a lot and played a lot and we will continue to drive and play and continue. Life is good and sweet. Europa very soon!

Two videos for the price of one! Sideshow Kyle gets flatty while the boys film some lines. And for a little pre-weekend bonus... know that Mikey and Malto will go to great lengths for...
