...the Smith Seven House.
...Jack got a new little toy today. the future. life without this thing sucked.
day 35
...found this in a distro at our show in Oklahoma City. i was pretty stoked. especially because depending on who you ask, this 7inch might not even really exist.
...outside the Oklahoma City show. it was REALLY REALLY hot.
...homegirl (and used-to-be-Bay-Area-native) Jessica took us to this apartment complex pool that one of her friends used to live at or something for a midnight swim. it was very nice and damn needed that night.
...thanks strangers at the apartment complex.
day 36
...driving to Houston, Texas.
...about a week before it was suppose to happen, our show in Houston was moved from some warehouse space to a bar in town (cause of cops shutting the warehouse down). anyways, we were told the show would still be all ages...when we arrived, we were told it was 21+...bummer...after checking out our options, a bunch of text messages, phone calls, and searching various parkinglots in the area for an outlet and place to move our set, we found an AWESOME dude at the show that said we could just play in his living room until the cops show up. (hell yes). so within an hour, us and about 30 kids bailed the bar and headed a few blocks down the road to Alex's house.
...definitely was one of the most rad shows we've ever played. we got to play our planned set. cops came. no one got in trouble. success. (ps...kids in Houston RULE).
...ran out of patches. but, we brought a screen and ink with us. made some shirts instead.
...after all that awesomeness, we headed over to homie Casey's house (with pool, obviously). him and his gf Lauren are the best people ever.
...definitely chilled in this pool till the early AM.
day 37
...show in Fort Worth, Texas was at 1919 Hemphill. (a super rad diy art space ran by good people).
...after the show, Leo (awesome kid who put on the show) called up his buddy Lisa (who coincidently also ruled), and she was able to hook us up with a free and very nice hotel suite in the area. damn. thanks again.
YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!!
