Pekin, IL

We cancelled our show in Grand Rapids, MI yesterday so Jared could get
better. We all had a night at home, and it was great. I got some good
rest and (my mom) did some laundry. I felt totally recharged!

We went to Pekin, IL today to play a show. The drive was real short and
we jammed out to some old tunes the whole way there. The show was
really good! There were over 200 kids there, and the Grad got an awesome
response! Kids were singing along, jumping around, etc. The guys
played pretty well. The sound (pa system) wasn't great, but it did the
job. Corey's voice was pretty raspy in parts, so we need to make sure
he stays healthy. The guys killed it in merch.

I had some friends (from high school and college) come out. It was
great seeing them! We caught up and watched the show together. Overall,
it was a really good show and I'm glad the guys were healthy enough to
play it!

We are currently in the beginning of our drive to Clara, OK (outside of
Tulsa). It's an 8 hour drive, and we're probably going to get a hotel
part way into the drive. It's also daylight savings time, so we lose an
hour tonight. Not cool. Anyways, I'll be back to check in sometime
tomorrow!
