middle america

packing the car in iowa
devin's new hat
we played a show in kansas city wednesday night at pistol social club.
here is a video of one of the cats that lives there, flora.
she is very gentle and dainty.

and here's a pic of her
flora in kansas city
both of our mics broke. the electribe shut off which sent our sampler into a frenzy and everything stopped working all together.
we thought the show was over, but all of the kids at the show got on the floor and started doing pushups to try and summon enough energy to get our stuff to work... and they did!
well, the mics didn't, but the sampler and the electribe came back to life after about 5 minutes.

the next day, as we were driving to denver we got stuck in a bad storm.
then a tornado warning alert came on the radio as we were passed by a tornado intercept vehicle and a team of trucks.
the tornado intercept vehicle was the craziest thing i have ever seen.
i couldn't get a good picture, but you can see a pic of a similar one
here
it was scary.
here's a bad video i took as we were freaking out:

and we made it out alive.

canada drive pretty

a drive through canada
i've been slacking on taking pictures lately.
first because my camera got soaked and now because the batteries are dead.
i bought new ones today.

here's a verbal, succint summary of what's been going on.
providence- awesome.
boston- terrible
portsmouth- cold and rainy, but OK
montreal- cancelled
toronto- awesome. we played in a united steelworkers of america. the room had dividers and different bands played in different rooms. with each wall that opened the room got bigger. we love toronto.
detroit- cool space
chicago- pretty ok
milwaukee- surprisingly FUN.

here are two videos from our drive through canada.
one is really foggy because of my wet camera.
the other is to show how pretty it really was.


also, when we crossed the border from canada to michigan we had to go inside and be searched.
inside there was a poster hanging with a parrot on it.
above the parrot it said "don't smuggle me. i could be sick"
it is, by far, the best thing i've seen on tour.
