We had a day off from the Copeland tour a couple days ago. A day off from the tour that is, but not a true day off. We played at the Trocadero in Philly's China Town for Ace Ender's CD release show. It was my first chance meeting the guys, and I'll tell you first hand they are great dudes, and are fantastic live. Check them out on tour now with The All-American Rejects! Thanks again Jason for letting me use your drum kit.
The show got moved from the main room to the "Balcony Bar" and it was PACKED. We had a good 'ol sweaty time ha ha. How did all these people fit in there!??
Out front of the venue they have a screen that advertises all the upcoming shows. For some reason this time is was heavily decorated with scantly clad Barbie dolls partying it up. Looks like they had a wild time in there. While we were waiting to load our gear into the venue, I watched this cute little kid that kept running up to the window. He kept leaning down and turning his head sideways... I think he was trying to look up the Barbie's skirts! Was one of the funniest things I've seen this tour... and adorable.
The night was exhausting, as this tour has been for us, so I made a little bit of time and went and got some INCREDIBLE sushi. I love sushi. It's so good and I always feel so fresh after I eat it. I rarely get to eat it, especially on tour because it's a little too expensive... and my band won't go anymore... that's right... they're freakin' lame. Haha.
I've been pretty lazy the past couple weeks and have hardly pulled out my real camera. So I apologize for my crumby iPhone pictures. I'll take some real pictures eventually. And also sorry I haven't been online much either here or my myspace. I usually am much better at responding to messages, but I lost my MacBook charger. So lame....
PEACE!

Philly's Chinatown cool! It's o.k. if you haven't updated, I'm can relate to that. I have a blogspot but, it doesn't work. The concert was the first time in while that I really fired my camera up.

Chinatown in Philly? It's funny that they have one in almost every city. I understand that you have been busy, it's hard to update when you're on the road. It's hard to get internet access when you're on the road. But, I'm glad the tour is going well so far.

ace enders are really good. i got to see them two? weeks ago. really nice vocals and sound.
and awh, that sounds funny. i remember that two days ago, in school, our principle brought her child to school, so he could visit our classes. any who, he came into my sixth hour class, which is gym, and he wanted to play volleyball. he was saying something like "i can play! i can jump! i'm good!" and he started jumping all around. i wanted to stuff him inside my pocket and take him home. :3
don't get sushi/fish breath!,

Looks like you were having a sushi date by yourself haha. Booooo they are def lame... I would totally be your sushi buddy. I had some sushi today! Philadelphia rolls are my favorite. nom nom nom.
I know what you mean... I've been pretty lazy about using my real camera lately too. It can be a hassle to lug around the digital SLR sometimes :/
That sucks... I hate that MacBook chargers are so expensive! I had to buy a second one cas I broke my first one. Now I need a new MacBook soon... damn technology, it costs too much!
