I'm aware it's been a good few days

So. I know it's been a hot minute since my last post. I've been insanely busy driving driving driving, doing merch, and getting motion sick from looking at my computer. My first days in Boston were spent at the practice loft  in Boston, in the garage/basement organizing the shit out of everything. It was intense as shit. I have pictures that I need to upload, but I'm way too tired as of right now. Anyways, we left the 30th at like seven at night. Off we went in our veggie oil fueled van. our veggie oil 12 passenger van. how dick sucky is that shit. 9 of us in a 12 passenger. dave almost broke down when he realized that not only was one bench going to be 3 person, but all of us were going to have to rotate the entire tour. not having assigned seats is pretty awful. 

We drove through the night to the 1st, then broke down at 7am. we got a tow truck and got it to a shop after smoking and playing football on the grass/mud. The mechanic told us the veg oil was broken and to run off diesel for a while. Then the van continuously shook when we went over 60. Then the seatbelts stopped unclicking. Then the air started smelling like diesel. It was pretty amazing. and by amazing I mean fucking awful. [not to mention it was still a 12 passenger]. So we finally get to Detroit. We literally pull in and unload like a fucking... I don't know.... something incredibly quick. Regardless. I have this chick there to count me in- she literally wants to count EVERYTHING I own. all 95 designs. After I set everything up, I look across the room, and who is it but Drew! Bad Religion Drew. My protector and big brother on warped. god I love him. so much. 

anyways, that made the entire tour that much better. So we sell and then count out. Drive to chicago. Roy came. The day was pretty uneventful other than the sucky 5 flight load in. Michael J came out though. it was cool. After that we went to Minneapolis. We were fashionably late again. hahahah. Nate didn't end up coming out, I was bummed as shit. He had some show to play and he wasn't in town. so shitty. I was looking so forward to it. We got a hotel that night and drove to milwaukee the next day. I need to start taking more pictures! I can't remember what the venue looked like. shiza! it's literally been... sit in the van cramped, and drive for HOURS. the drives are super gnarly cause it's routed to be a bus tour. not a veggie oil broke as fuck van tour. at least we've smoked a lot... but now I need to buckle down and start life. I need to go through and make an EXACT spreadsheet. I've been putting the totals and pay outs and all that stuff in the bottom right hand corner, but I need to make an exact format for everything. it's been bugging me. and I need to do the lyrics to that song. my life has been engulfed in merch. 

Shit should be way better since we're renting a 15 passnger tomorrow. Apparently the mechanic we went to today said the vans engine should be blowing up sometime in the next hundred miles. then we found out that the trailers bearings are totally fucked up. so we're not going to make the overnight drive to cleveland  tonight. were staying and getting a 15 passenger, fixing the trailer, then hauling ass to canada. I need to send my reports into the broker. I'm going to go work on that now.

This was long! Thankfully, we've been watching Jackass the movie. SO FUNNY.
