As you already know, we made it. We've got an arsenal of goods, pictures and video, but we've been so busy eating crab that we haven't had time to get to the blogs! So far we've kicked off the tour in Lubbock, we played a two night show at Bar PM and played at the Beta House for one of the best shows of the tour, a daytime gig with tons of Keystone pounding frat and sorority kids. We moved on to Santa Fe, NM, then over to Flagstaff for a night off with some Karaoke
We headed down to Mesa, AZ and had a pretty chill gig for a weeknight, but definitely made some friends... We made it to San Diego, CA the next day, we headed up to Los Angeles, and also the Brookdale Lodge for a haunted excursion.. We hung out in Santa Cruz, and then spent a few days in San Francisco. The depth and quality of this trip is just so large in my mind, so much to say, so much to show... For now here's a few more pictures until me and Inspector Gadget get all the materials compiled....
Sometimes you just gotta go.... and of course, in traffic, what a better place to have a hot bag of piss drip onto our freshly cleaned carpets... Oh bother!
CHAZ SPOTTING! So, we spotted some Native Wildlife to the California Coast, a genuine Chaz. You may have seen Chaz in any of the eighties movies that usually feature a white boy with polos, and of course white pants. Usually has a nice sports car and beats the shit out of John Cusak or the Nerds. Of course, I myself, often dress like a Chaz, this guy was dead on. Dboz did a false pose for me while I zoomed in on the cat. Hey we're all a little bit of a Chaz every once in a while....
Percy buys a beach cruiser. So we debated seriously, purchasing a cruiser for the beach. We won over $1,000 instant lotto from a tip from our merchandise bin. We were so close to purchasing a motorcycle from Pep Boys. They sell these small scooters that look like Harley's for $500, and they are amazing. Then we realized that I was too fat to ride on it and spent the money on $4 per gallon gasoline.
Anyway.... Below you'll notice...
As you might notice from the picture above, we've been given the green light from Random House Publishing to start the editing of our new coffee table book, "American Glute" a dedication to the female buttocks. This picture taken above is from the mannequin at the local jean store.
Wouldn't be a good road trip without some good old fashioned grade A car trouble... We were driving to our first day off health hike, band wellness adventure, when the universe decided that sitting at Pep Boys and losing over $300 was more important. The good news, we noticed the problem right away, by the time we got it diagnosed at Auto Zone the van coasted into Pep Boys where we upgraded to a higher volt alternator. Turns out that Dboz's gadget central may have played a role in the killing of our alternator. You see Dboz has a full multimedia lab going at all times in the van, so maybe it's finally taken it's toll on the battery and the alternator, the good news, we upgraded so we now have a microwave oven for pizza rolls that runs 24-7 in the back seat.
Okay, so I'm really trying hard, I'm trying, really... to make these blogs a little more rated PG. And I know that this picture may seem a tad disturbing but it's just a movie reference. For any of you that haven't seen the Big Lebowski, you are the only ones that wouldn't recognize a photo like this. So it's been a habit of one of the MM crew to draw replicas at every hotel we go to. Here's one from a favorite hotel of ours. The only harm is that the cleaning ladies probably get offended but it couldn't be any worse than them walking in to our rooms all the time trying to get us out of the hotel. We're in a band, you have to kick us out, we don't go to bed until late, it's just business. So they bang on the door and usually enter, all to see one of us marching towards the door, I always make it a point to answer the door naked.
Can anyone tell what's going on in this photo? ?
From the Road Tip: Bum Coozie. So since some of us are semi-unemployed at this time, it helps to try and trim the fat, save on whatever we can. We are often forced with schwag deals on drinks at these clubs..... forcing some of us to drink our standard 4,000 pre-show drinks outside of the venue. Well I want all of you to know that the 7-11 coffee cup is perfectly retrofitted to a discreet street legal coozie that will disguise any can of your choice. Happy Drinking!
