Show, Load Out, Five Hundred Miles

[street_show]

The sun is setting around 4:30 PM in Northern Canada, the trucks are constantly screaming by on the highway outside our lodge-style hotel, and the traffic lights at the intersection visible from my window change for nobody. Tomorrow I will be doing a show, then hurtling down the road almost six hundred miles to the next city. As for right now,

Aww...I hope you get to spend more time with Nikki soon, cause I can imagine that a semi long distance relationship would be really hard, especially when you care about someone really deeply.
The long distance traveling part of touring is probably not that great, but I think it woul;d be awesome to see all the places you get to go to =)
"Touring is a true crucible of character, you learn people's idiosyncrasies pretty quickly when you're forced to be around them nearly 24 hours a day"
ahah I can imagine! I want to be in a band and tour, so I guess I'll experience this firsthand =P

You hit the nail on the head right there really, touring is great because of all the things you see, but it can really detach you from your home.

Good luck with the band. :) You will experience that first hand to say the LEAST!

Thank you! That means a lot =)

i'm so glad you had such a wonderful time with nikki!

and really, i would love for you to be touring somewhere near me so i could come see your show! however, i really doubt you'll be coming anywhere near me. hah

I did have a wonderful time with her... And where are you located? You never know!

Yay for Skype! =D

Hang in there, you don't have that long a time left to wait! =D

[street_show]

Skype is great, and I guess in the long scheme of things, no, I don't have that long to wait.

[aquarius_galuxy]

=D So how's your tour going?

[street_show]

Today, brutal, as I'm sure you can read.

Christmas is around the corner.

And once more,
I could never spend as much time in a van/ any other form of land vehicle as you do.

[street_show]

Christmas is just around the corner indeedy!

And you wouldn't believe what kind of travel day I had today, it's not something I would wish on ANYONE.

Aw - loading out is the worst part of any show though, it'll take anyone down a couple notches = )

Just wait until the load in...and the skype, that'll help too.

[street_show]

Load in and load out both suck equal amounts. :/
