to anyone who was following it. I'm going to do a big update now to
catch people up to speed.
After Easter, we played a show in Des Moines, IA at the House of
Bricks. The place was cool and the show was good! The guys got a good
response.
*This place has awesome food! (Potato skins all the way..)
Next, we played in Papillion, NE at The Rock. This place was a few
miles away from Omaha. The show was pretty small (~60 kids) but we still
had a good time. After the show, we stayed with some buddies at
Creighton University. It was a blast.
Only downfall...some of us stayed with a kid who broke his toilet during
the night........the guys woke up to a flooded room. Not cool!
After Papillion, we played St. Louis, MO (Creepy Crawl). The show was a
lot of fun. The guys played well and the kids really got into them. My
uncle came to check it out....I think he actually enjoyed it!! I ran
into an old friend from St. L that I hadn't seen in three years. Pretty
crazy! We stayed in St. L with a good buddy of ours. Overall, it was a
great night.
The next show was in Columbus, OH at The Basement. This show was
great. The guys played decent, but they had a terrible sound guy.
Despite the sound issues, the crowd loved them! We did really well in
merch and the guys were signing stuff all night. I think part of the
great response was due to the fact that we played a huge show in
Cleveland (with Jack's Mannequin) a month ago. We had some kids come
back, which is awesome! We stayed with Matt's cousin in Columbus. It was
a good time!
Saturday night, we played in Edinboro, PA at The Hangout. This venue was
pretty cool. There were like 300 kids. The guys played well and I got
to use a really cool light board for their set. This was Punchline's
23rd time playing this venue! We stayed with some kids in Erie, PA that
night.
The next show was in Buffalo, NY at The Icon. The show was pretty
decent. There were about 100 kids there. Unfortunately, the sound guy
was sub-par. The guys were bummed about the sound during their set.
After the show, we started driving towards South Hackensack, NJ (where
our next show was). We hit some bad snow and decided to get a hotel
part way through our trip.
The show yesterday in South Hackensack, NJ was cancelled due to
flooding. We decided to make our way to Baltimore, MD (where our next
show would be). We made our way through some bad weather (snow) and got
to Towson, MD (right outside of Baltimore) last night. We stayed with
our friend Julia who works at Absolutepunk.net (my favorite website)!
Hah. This leads up to where I am right now. We have a crazy next few
days. I'll do my best to keep everyone up-to-date on how things go.
