Salt Lake City, UT (Club Sound)

We woke up real early and headed for Salt Lake City, UT. The drive
wasn't too bad. There was some really cool scenery around SLC. We got
to the venue and did the normal routine. The venue was decent. All the
bands hung out in the basement of the venue before the show. This was
the best backstage we've had yet on any tour!!! It was huge! There were
pool tables and all sorts of other cool stuff.

We had Chinese catering before the show. It was really good! It's great
to have something besides fast food for once.

The show started off rocky, but ended up being pretty good. When the
guys played, there were probably 50-60 kids there. By the end of the
show, there were around 140 kids there. A lot of kids missed the
beginning of the show because it got moved up two hours the day before
and they weren't aware.

The guys had like ten minutes of technical difficulties before they
played. (The sound guy couldn't get Matt's synthesizer to play out of
the PA system.) As a result, the guys had to cut one song out of their
set. They still played well and got an awesome crowd response! We did
well on merch sales.

After the show, we went to Ogden, CO and did an on-air
performance/interview for Weber college. The performance/interview was
a little rocky, but I'm still glad we did it. We stayed with the guy
who did the interview. He was Mormon.

We're now driving to our show in Boise, ID.
