So its been a freaking long ass time since I wrote here. So much to say. But I won't.

Our bus broke. I am looking to buy another one. Fun fun.

I shot some Trashy Life footage for the girls. It was fun. There are 2 pics I got swept up in. Heh.

Well, I am here in LA for a month or so. I am with the band I tour with while they are here recording their next album. Hopefully I will meet some new folks, hang out, and shoot some photos while I am here.

Feel free to drop me a line and let me know what's going on in the LA area.

so im home now... for a few more hours... then off to providence.

a quick recap. i decided to set up some lights outside of our show the other night on this big patio which we were using for backstage. it was fun. a psuedo-photobooth if you will. it was nice to see all of the bands intermingling to get photos together. it was fun. the photos turned out amazing too. its funny to see what kinds of wild things people want to do for a picture. sometimes i think a camera has the ability to draw the craziest things out of people's inner sanctum.

after ny, we hightailed it out of there to run to philly, that being home and all. its nice seeing my family. i took a quick shower and visited with my dad for a few, and headed to the electric factory. a little backstory... i worked at the electric factory for a few years prior to really going on tour all that much, so this was definitely a homecoming for me, as well as the band. being that i am the tour manager, i also had to set up this party for family and friends. my day was beginning to get hectic. i had phone calls from parents who wanted their tickets and passes early. ugggh. so we bought 2 kegs and set up a nice little hangout in the green room. the show went well, the guys played great... my ability to do sound was in full effect... so thats good. i wouldnt want to embarass myself infront of all of my peers and coworkers by having tons of feedback.

anyway... zui came and hung out. always good to see her. we have fun running around like 2 silly kids. its a shame i was so damn busy all night or i would have hung out more. i guess thats what happens when you have hometown shows.

its ok... i hung out with her, and some friends afterwards... much nicer.. quieter.

time for dinner....

First journal kids.

I have been on tour with Coheed and Cambria, Blood Brothers, Dredg and mewithoutYou for the past 5 weeks. I can't say enough about this tour. It has definitely been great times.

Tonight we were in DC at the 9:30. I really enjoyed doing sound here. Its kind of a new role on top of my old one. It sounded great by the way. Zui came to hang out too and brought Beta along. It's been months since we hung out on the TOC tour, so it was awesome getting to see her again.

Of course we were heading back to Philly tonight, so I didn't get to hang out as long as I may have liked to. Hopefully, Zui will come hang in Philly for our show there. That would work just fine by me.

Well, its 7am and I haven't slept yet. Time for a nap.
