an old update:
day after easter and i am feeling fine! this weekend was much needed. so here goes the story.....
friday started off good. we pulled into chicago and got to meet laurie our publicist. she is older than me, prob. in her late 30's. but she is just super cute, with her red hair with black low-light, beautiful smile and gorgeous eyes. on top of that she is super nice. talking with her it became very evident how many cool/popular people she knows, billy corgan being the main.
that night we played a show at this place called tiger o'shylies. this place was weird and the show was terrible. half-way through the show the ipod just stopped on us. needless to say i think it was the worst show we have ever played. but to my surprise people liked it and bought merch. plus tension was def. in the air, i was pissed for i do not know what. oh i now remember, brandon and bill yelling at each other on stage, that is always professional.
after the show we headed to nicole's great aunt and uncle's place, i slept like a baby. that morning since i was sleeping on the couch i was awoke by the residents of the household. a young guy living there named adam made me eggs and an english muffin.
so after hanging around doing nothing we made our way to the venue, which was only about three blocks away from the place we played the previous night. the club was ok, a lot better than the night before. the best thing about this day though was that one of my best friends, tyler watts came to see me. it was great, he showed up to the club early and along with his friend aaron we went to some sweet micro-brew place downtown chicago.
the show went really well, a lot of kids bought stuff. plus it was so great to see tyler, it made my day. at the show i met two new lady friends via marshall. one being amanda who is from houston and sarah is from chicago. after the show they gave us the good news of us being invited to a party downtown chicago. so after dropping bill and nicole off we headed up to the party. i was told she was going to be there but as soon as we walked in i was stunned to see sarah from america's next top model.
the party was fun, we drank and we danced! the hi-light of the party was when i actually told sarah off. she was being a bitch so i let her have it. we made up and made out, so we are all better now. ok i am lying about the second part. we ended up staying the night there. i stayed in some random girls bed, i got the best sleep i had gotten all tour. upon getting up we decided to take the girls to the train station and we were heading to an easter lunch with laurie.
we dropped the girls off downtown and started heading towards laurie's place to have lunch. we were all super hunger so decided to stop at a wendy's. when we got out of the van the sweet smell of a taqueria hit us like a pound of bricks. so of course we went over to fill somewhat of a hole in our stomachs. the place was authentic, we had carne assada taco's!
on our way over to the easter lunch engagement we saw amanda and sarah standing on the side of the street. so naturally we picked them up and decided that they would come to lunch with us and we would take them back to milwaukke, where they attend art school. the lunch went great, the people were super nice. plus it was nice to get to see laurie again!
getting to milwaukke, we headed straight for the dorms. on the way i decided that i should give both girls a hair cut. sarah let me cut her hair in this cool angled bob but then we decided to do a faux hawk. her hair turned out great! as far as amanda, i wanted to cut her hair all of. give her a short pixie hair cut, she would not let me. i was able to cut about 7 inches off and thin it out a lot.
i also meet some of their dorm mates, emily and beata. emily i kind of felt sorry for, she did not seem happy at all. beata is this super cute polish girl, her eyes are super intense! i also got to meet sarah's gf, she was super sweet. over all the girls were so cool and just really fun to hang out with! i guess i enjoyed it so much because i was able to hang out with some females instead of just males, plus i got to cut hair!
so there it is, i am sure more went down. i am in some po dunk town in indiana about to play a show. oh we just got good news about us prob. being picked up by an international booking agent. we might be doing a european tour the summer of '08! PLUS WE MIGHT BE GOING TO BRAZIL IN NOVEMBER!
