Seattle, WA (El Corazon)

Yesterday's show was at El Corazon in Seattle. We woke up, showered,
and decided to get something to eat. We walked a ways and found a bar
and grill called '125th Steet Grill.' It had some really good food! I
tried clam chowder for the first time (p.s. I'm 22), and it was really
good!

After lunch, we went to an interview at a place called the 'Gibson
Showroom' in downtown Seattle. I wasn't sure what this was all about
until we got there. Well, this ended up being awesome! It was a
showroom of Gibson brand guitars and various other instruments.
Everyone was really excited to be there. The guys did a little
interview with them and then talked with some people who work at Gibson.
(P.s. Gibson is one of the most popular brand of guitars out
there....Matt and Max both have at least one Gibson guitar.)

Anyways, Gibson has a loaner program where an artist can borrow one of
their guitars and try it out on the road for a few weeks (and then send
it back). Matt and Max both decided to loan a guitar for the next three
weeks. Pretty cool!

After the Gibson showroom, we went to our show at El Corazon. The show
ended up being decent. There were about 100 kids there. The guys
played pretty well and got a good crowd response. We did pretty decent
on merch.

After the show, we had a few people back to our hotel room. It ended up
being a later night than planned, but that's ok. We're now awake and
ready to leave for our show in Portland, OR. Hopefully tonight's show
goes well.
