Currently departing for boston from south jerz... first hazy morning of public cemetery spaghetti angel lobotomy tour pt.2. First night was of great magnitude. We played yesterday in Gloucester City at a venue/rehearsal studio/equipment rental/all ages, byob, music emporium called Airport Circle (neither an airport nor a circle...discuss). It was an early show, our buds in Locked Together in Hatred from Paramus opened up. Our ol' pal Ant Lopardo (aka Large T) & Ray recorded two of their records at Killingsworf Co. They are all really good guys and play awesome rollicking metalcore. Next was Cavale, crazy experimental heavy three piece from South Jersey. Delectable noises & performances, and very nice people. Hope to bring them to NY for shows soon. Our set went pretty well, we were unsure of what to do for a set list while rehearsing for this tour so we decided to just play the album straight through. It was fun but more importantly gave us a lot of ideas for today's set (in boston). Up-and-coming pop-punkas TBA closed out the evening. Karena & Front Row For Life Prod. were all really positive, good people. I have pictures on a tiny pink digital camera I borrowed from my sister but brought the wrong cable to connect it to the laptop...will add later. Luckily our collective life partner, merch wrangler, & mega fun-blog authority for this tour, Bick Naredda, is holdin' it down on his "smaht" phone so there will still be some.
Jay from LTIH let us crash in his garage/rehearsal space & we spent the night with those dudes donating brain matter. Got to swim in his pool from 3am on and met an adorable homemade creature called the OctaBong*. Fell asleep to Earth's 'The Bees Made Honey in the Lion's Skull" which I highly recommend. Got to sleep around 5, Ray's mom called at 7 to wake up Ray so she could tell him that the Paramus Police had his wallet which was confusing. He dropped it and luckily a good samaritan was goodsamaratanish enough to actually bring it to the police department, so thank you for whoever you are.
Currently driving in a comfortable brain mist up to Jamaica Plain, MA to play at the Midway Cafe. I like playing Midway and I'm excited to play with & see Problem With Dragons. One show down, ten to go. Very keen on new cities everyday and some familiar faces along the way. Can't wait to go nuts in Boston.
