first holiday show

So its the day of the philly show and right now, me, anthony, our tour manager brian, guitar tech ryan and holiday merch show guy kyle sit on a shoulder of I-95 15 minutes outside of philly.

Not fun

we rented a van from a band that one of our friends knew because we sold our van a few months back because we don't use it. One of the trailer tires blew the hell up and its 3 o'clock, we should've been there 2 hours ago. Nash and ben are there because they drove seperately.

This gets kind of funny. We called Valencia and asked if they could come in their van and pick us up so we could get our gear to the show. Their tech came and got us quickly which is awesome, the only thing is .... he doest have trailer keys. So we have all of our gear out on the shoulder, a trailer and no way to get into it. So as of right now we're waiting for some other dude to come with the key to open up the heavely trailer which will hopefully get us there in time to soundcheck and save the show. Bye for now. I'm doing a good job of not being pessimistic and grouchy because of this.

Ps- I hope santa brought everything you wanted for x-mas!
