On the Road and Happy Halloweens!

It's Official.
We have embarked on our acoustic tour with XO, Shanti and Paper Mache and have passed through some of the smelliest states in the US...Mississippi and oh yes, Alabama.









Rehab is Fun.
I wasn't sure if this was supposed to be a restaurant or a halfway house but the bums left us some presents...trash and beer...niiiice.











Quick Stop.
We stopped in Athens to take a swing by the Team Clermont office to pay our respects and play a few of the tunes from our next album. Everyone was hard at work and gracious enough to take a few minutes out of their day to let us interrupt them. They've worked so hard on our radio promotions to help make our album "Blue Roses" heard and seen. We love them!










The Fourth Meal.
There is a thing called the Fourth Meal in existence and it is the meal that comes between dinner and breakfast. This meal is not a myth and is not to be taken lightly. Thanks to the Taco Bell "Feed the Beat" contest we can eat these so called Fourth Meals to our heart's content. I think we will start a tally of how much Taco Bell we have in fact eaten and how much of the menu we have tried. Will update!




Ryan's Soul Mate.
You know who he is...the guy at the out of town shop that wants to "pound it out" (secret handshake) and tells you that he's "got your back". We will call said guy random crazy coffee shop man and don't worry, we'll run into one in every town I guarantee. Those people that are just crazy enough to come up and invade your business. The only thing cooler? The guy who dresses up like this regular for Halloween...oh yes!...we have the footage.



Meet the Cast.
Seth - Singer - Paper Mache (vegetarian!)
Chris - Guitar - Paper Mache
Well at least for this tour those are their roles. Super nice, super talented and songs that will pretty much break your heart. We will be sharing a van with them the rest of the way so there will be more shenanigans to come.






Also Starring.
Jeff - XO - Guitar/Vocals
Shanti - Guitar/Vocals
Our first encounter was standing outside when I had one boot off trying to find the bobby pin that had fallen inside of it. I don't know how.
Also super nice, cool as hell and fellow vegetarians (hooray). They have joined forces to sing each others songs and some new ones in an entrancing, honest and open-hearted display.

So far so good! We'll be updating more along the way but one thing is guaranteed. There will be great music and good company every night!
