West Hollywood, CA (The Roxy Theatre)

Yesterday's show was at the Roxy in West Hollywood (Los Angeles). We
got there right on time for load in and did the normal routine. The
club was pretty cool.

The guys opened the show. They played pretty well and got a pretty good
crowd response. There were around 100 people there when they played,
and more came in throughout the night. The sound was decent. We did ok
on merch. I never expect to do to well on merch in L.A. It's often
times industry people and such at shows.

Our booking agent (Andrew) and a guy from our label (Dick) came out the
the show. It was great to see both of them. They seemed to enjoy the
set. We also got to see a good buddy from back home. He moved out to
L.A. a few months back. It was great catching up with him.

We got 2 parking tickets (toward the end of the show) while parked
outside of the venue. Bummer. In West Hollywood, meters run until 2am.
It's stupid. I guess that's how they make their revenue - parking
tickets.

After the show, we went up to Dick's place. He lived in an awesome
'work space/living space.' It was really cool. We slept there.

This morning, we woke up, showered, and Dick and his girlfriend made us
breakfast. It was great! We're now at the venue (Chain Reaction in
Anaheim, CA). Tonight's show should be great!
