Day Off, New Jersey 2, Delaware, Pennsylvania

Day Off
We did nothing but laundry. We stayed at a friend's house in NJ. Really nothing to report. It was New Jersey...


Woodbridge, NJ
Very nice club, all nu-industrial bands. We totally didn't fit in but they were cool and so were the people. Nicest sound guy...ever? We ended up playing first for an almost empty house. Our best good friend Derek drove down from New Hampshire to see us but MISSED us. He is such a great kid and it was nice to see a familiar face. After the show we camped out. It was the first time I had camped in a while and it was fun. Roughing it a bit.

Wilmington, Delaware
Dead Presidents Pub was a cool little bar in Delaware. They didn't have much of a stage but the crowd was great. Halfway through our set some water got spilled on kyle's amp but we have a backup! The next night it came back to life. Marshalls live forever! After the show we camped out in Delaware. The New Jersey campsite was surprisingly better but this was still nice.

State College, PA
WOW crazy night. After driving for 6+ hours and getting lost in Amish Country we show up to the club and find out there is NO SHOW. We were away from the internet so we hadn't heard. The 2 girls at the club were incredibly helpful and ending up finding us another show. The crowd was awesome and it was so far the best night of the tour. After running through rain, hail, and lightning for several blocks we played an awesome show for awesome people and stayed with the girls who found us the show. Thanks Sara and Abby!

Right now I am backstage at the Laughing Lizard Lounge in Old Town Alexandria, VA. Biggest crowd yet so I'm excited to play. My guitars are all strung and I'm ready to go. Tomorrow is our last show on the tour. I'm sad to see it end so fast!
