Patsy Cline - I Fall to Pieces
Rhode Island: Road or Island?
A really good friend of the band came out to two shows this tour and donated more money than any of our merch will ever be worth. Really good dude. If everyone supported the scene 1/10th of the amount he does, I definitely wouldn’t be posting whiney blogs about house show mismanagement.
He wrote a song about a night spent together in Willimantic, CT at the famous Handsome Woman. It’s...

I spoke too soon. Last night kind of sucked. I’m pretty sure everyone had the best intentions, but the stars aligned for a disappointing show. I’m stoked we had a place to play, but when it comes to a touring band, there are some rules you just shouldn’t break. Here we go.
If the show is on a weekday, don’t start the first band at 10:15 PM.
If the first band is starting...
I'm in New York City.
I’m in New York City and I can’t help but realize that this place is kind of lame. I get the impression that these droves of wide eyed twenty-somethings flock here to find opportunity like it’s something exclusive to an area code. Although maybe I’m just bitter over how fucked up its roads are. Step up your automobile game, NYC.
As usual, it’s halfway though tour...
It's 6 AM
We just got to Scranton from wonderful Pittsburgh and the sun is fully risen. Everyone is cranky and I need sleep.

If karma is in fact a real thing, one of us must have murdered someone. Three days on the road and our luck couldn’t be any worse.
Day one, on the drive to Atlanta, GA, our fuel pump decided pumping fuel was no longer it’s priority. 24 hours, a heat loss and a too-much-too-soon tow truck driver…
"Van" is now officially a four letter word.
Well, the van broke down again.

Tour starts in 30-something hours
and I have all this pre-tour anxiety. I’m worried that I haven’t helped out Matt enough with the guitar parts. I’m worried about shows falling through, not having places to sleep, falling asleep at the wheel. I almost feel like I’m already burned out on this tour. But I mean, by the time I’m in Rockford, IL, I’ll probably have a hard time remembering whatever it...
sheerhellishmiasma asked: Hey man, I really like the song you just posted. Is it cool if I attempt to record drums and stuff for it? if it sucks I won't post it.
Are you guys not on tour any more?

Our friend Evan made this. He’s going on tour with us again in like 5 days. He thinks he’s better than me at making videos, but dude, where’d you learn how to get that label maker font with the page flip transition? Television Production class in high school? Windows movie maker in 1998? Lego movies for kids? Grow up Evan. No but really. This kind of sums up everything. Driving,...
