We r at Hi-Tone a small venue that has all the makings of a great place to do live music. I mean the crowd is more reseved, by this I mean not a lot of dancing. But they some singing, yelling, body rocking types.

It's been an hour since we left the stage. We did a forty-five minute set that felt like twenty. Songs tonite: Bright Energy, Pardon Me, She Wears A Smile, devils Basement, I Got This Feeling, Other Side, and Bring It On Home. We got new fans that's for sure.

I'm at the merch table watching JJ Grey do his last song.

Night 3

We have done a free show at a new venue in Mobile, Alabama, which is the original home of Mardi Gras. This was a throw in show that we found out just as we were making plans to have the day off. Included in this package was also an acoustic set at triple A radio station 92 Zoo. JT, myself, Jordan and Kansas took the radio show as Nick Jay (who needs an acoustic bass like yesterday) handled set up and sound check. Pure was just like it sounded. More designed for a fashion show than a rock show, this venue was clean, crisp, and shinier on the inside than any venue we have played.

Night No. 2

We have completed show number two with JJ Grey. We r in 
Birmingham, Alabama. We changed our set a bit becuz last night in 
Jackson, we r certain we came so hard, the folks could not process 
what had happened to them. So this time we slid in on the crowd. JT 
was proud to say that Alabama was his birth home - then had to follow 
it up with being from Dallas where the Cowboys lost today. Womp! Womp! 
Womp! However the reception after the show was waaay better! Merch 
moved and folks in B-ham will spread the word. JT's sister is a BIG 
supporter and she brought her friends out.

Day 1

We r back on the road. This time for six weeks and I am commiting myself to reporting each night via iPhone. We have done our 45 minute set at Hal and Mals in Jackson, MS. JJ Grey goes on soon. There's about 200 plus folks here and they are ready to get electrified. We plugged them in. Hal and Mals has great food. I recommend the bisque and the Greek Salad with shrimp. Also the red beans and rice goes hard! The ride here was cool. Leaving Dallas-bittersweet. I did alot of sleeping on the way cuz I lost most of it in Dallas.

GROUP THINK VAN SLEEP

In Madison, Wisconsin today after doing the Praire Dog Blues Festival last night in Prairie Du Chien. Let me tell you - our entire day was rough. We started out having to deal with SW Airlines to get the check to rent another Norg. This put us two hours behind on travel to Prairie Du Chien. It just seemed a big "hurry up and wait" big azz moment which is no good for my PMS. Aaargh. We catch lunch. I have a cobb salad sans bacon with added salmon. A $12 to-go satisfactory meal. By 2PM we are ready and head out of Kansas City, KS, only to travel through an intense rain storm.
