so today, we woke up in our siq little hotel in Lyon and had our complimentary continental breakfast...(yeah that's right...if you haven't been keeping up with the blog, we are huge shit now). hah, shit was tight. packed all of our shit, probably gave Boss one of those close-fisted-pounds at some point in the morning when i first saw him, and hopped in our van. we were driving to Strasbourg, France today for our show.
i'm trying to remember what happened on the way there, but can't. so i'ma just make up a story. on the way to Strasbourg, we were stopped at a rest stop in the middle of nowhere and while i was pissin, i realized that the person one urinal over from me was none other than Lil' Wayne!!!!! he was all like "eeeeey! 'sup young blood??" and i was like "holy shit!!! you're Lil' Wayne!!!" and he was like "yo, 4 sho'dough! datz me! how u like my new single 'Lollipop'? "...i then broke out my knife and commenced a stabbing-storm. i left him there, i dont think he was ok. as i was walking back to the van...i dunno why, but...something inside of me, at that moment, made me feel like i saved hip hop. you're welcome.
we got to Strasbourg a few hours later and were greeted by the awesome kids there. i always forget that they are into the double-kiss-on-the-cheeks there. that's rad. showin love. i'm into it. we were playing at some community center/sports arena place at this like country club place. it was siq. when we got there, the kids had already started setting up for a sweet bbq.
...good times. i had this...
soon after, the Trainwreck kids showed up. and Andi was back in action for this show too! rad shit. before the show started, a few of us and the T-wrecks got into some heavy tennis compz. i figure i'm alright at Wii-tennis, shit i gotta be like at least maybe-ok at the real deal.
...team Wes-and-i did alright. i think we won once.
...the show started soon after and it went VERY well. we were playing like in a super small lobby of this room. there were a ton of people there and the lobby was packed (and VERY VERY hot and sweaty). during out set, many-a-shirts came off, and one dude got completely n00die.
...you can't see his dude in this pic, but you know, you get the point. (this was right after we were done).
after the show, we hung out for a while, had some awesome desserts, and danced to some siq dance jamz that they had going on in the place after the bands were done. it was way fun. kids there were way stoked. after a bit, and some goodbyes, we got in the van cause we were driving to Aachen, Germany that night.
"siq shit" top 5 regulators:
1. kids from Paris being at the show
2. the Footloose crew kids from Freiburg, Germany coming out
3. seeing Andi Trainwreck.
4. the naked dude crowd surfing.
5. the people under the naked dude, having to hold his naked body up.
****Day 23,
we got to Felix (T-wreck drummer) and Maria's (his siq gf) SUPER siq pad in Aachen, Germany at like 7am or something this morning. we went straight to sleep once we got there. after a few hours of sleep, we woke up, had some suuuuper awesome vegan cupcakes that Maria made and headed over to the venue.
today was the final, championship game for the Euro-soccer-cup, and Germany was playing, so the Trainwreck kids thought it would be a good idea to have the show be a matinee show, and when it was over, head back to Felix and Maria's to watch the game and have a bbq.
so anyways, we got to the venue (same place we played last year) and were greeted by the awesomeness of Jenny and her AMAZING vegan food (again!!!). rulez! check this out...
...SOOOO freakin GOOD. take that everyone who is looking at these pictures and not eating this stuff!!!
it was rad too cause a bunch of kids from Koln and from Mannheim came out to this show. it was quite filled up for a matinee show. awesome!
the first band that played were these awesome kids called Kontrapunkt. they were damn good too. apparently they are breaking up soon and having their last show at Cry Me A River Fest with us, so i'm glad i get to catch that. after that were Trainwreck (who were the hometown heros here) and they kiiiiiiilled it. super good. we played after that and it went very well as well. this was a kinda sad day cause this was our last show with Boss. (tomorrow, he is leaving for another tour and we are gonna get driven by our friends Felix and Gautier)...but anyways, after our set Boss said he was super stoked to spend the few weeks with us and hang out and that he had a really good time. it was way heartwarming...what a sweetheart.
so after the show, like planned, we headed over to Felix and Maria's place for the bbq. (and let me add, their place is SOOOO fuckin RAD. coolest pad EVER). so yeah, a bunch of other awesome people came over for the bbq and to watch the game too.
...and the food we had fuckin ruuuuuuled as well. no joke, this is just a few hours after we ate all of Jenny's awesome food...we were pretty much spoiled today.
...just awesome vegan-deliciousness! what chuu no 'bout that plate?!?!
so yeah, we watched the game as we ate and all screamed pretty loud when Spain scored a goal (and then again later when they won). apparently, none of us, especially the Germans that we were with, didn't want Germany to win. hah. good times.
after the game, people started leaving, goodbyes were said, i took a shower, and us, Felix, Maria, Chris, and Boss watched "Superbad". it was the first time that all of those kids had seen it. hah. i think it went very well.
we all crashed out super hard after that.
"siq shit" top fiiiiiivez
1. Felix and Maria's awesome place.
2. doub-ley, AWESOMELY, good food today.
3. watching Family Guy in German, but still laughing like crazy cause all of us know every episode and joke so well.
4. watching people watch "Superbad" for the first time.
5. Boss laughing INCREDIBLY hard at that one scene when they are in home-ec class and Evan is all being super cute with his partner (Maroshi) and puts like flower all on his face like a cat and Maroshi starts scratching like a cat and licks his paws. yeah, after the movie was done, we watched that scene 2 more times just to see and hear Boss laugh so fuckin loud.
