Tour Day 1- Syracuse, NY- Singer's Karaoke Bar

today doesn't feel like a real tour day because i woke up in my own bed, just got out of my shower, and am going back to my own bed. But in news that one or two of you may care about. We played tonight at Singer's Karaoke Bar. I was a bit skeptical of it since they don't usually do shows, but decided to have a going away/good riddance/ CD release party/show for us. It was running very behind schedule and i was curious as to how many people would stick round for us. A surprising amount of people hung out danced, sang along, clapped, and encouraged us to follow our boyhood dreams of being professional rock and rollers. (edit: nick's dream was to be an Olympic ice dancer, but his dad laid down the law and said making out with dudes is the closest his son could go to being gay.)

So back to the topic at hand. Awesome fun show. tons of merch sales. today counts as shower #1 of tour. and tomorrow we start the real days of tour, by heading to the big apple.

Side note: keep an eye on that shower count... and don't expect it to get much higher than it already is.

so tomorrow i am waking up early, packing my few remaining possessions, and meeting my idiot friends around noon to drive across the state to play notes wrong for a hopefully decent sized group of strangers, and then party with my old roommate from college at his parent's house in long island. i never really thought my daily planner would read that just because i know how to play guitar.
