detroit

Man that last blog was terrible. When someone from the band actually reads that thing the are gonna laugh and say what a bitter man child i am. Did you know Matt is really into vans. It's hilarious and cute. He gives them a thumbs up when they drive by and will ask their owners "how did your van, um, get so cool?" like he was askin about the engine specs. Dear parents, there was not really LSD at Rob's, that was an inside joke. We really did do a lot of yardwork though. I liked it. Any convenient chance to exercise on tour should be taken. Back to the bloggle. We drove to Detroit and OH MY GOD!!! LEE JUST ALMOST MURDERED THOMAS!!! He started to drive off when the roof made a funny sound like someone was up there stumbling and saying "whoahh!" Sure enough, that's just what it was. I yelled at Lee like always and he blamed everyone else with typical Leegic. When Thomas jumped off the roof with a big smile we relaxed and started laughing. Thomas said it was very scary....
Detroit looks hideous! It's like what morons think America would look like if we didn't kill terrorists. Seriously, Fox News should just show pictures of Detroit and say there's been another attack. We drove around burnt out, run down versions of any building you can imagine. They got a football field that hasn't been used in forever and I always have to resist the urge to sneak in that thing. I imagine Desmond running a tour de'stat or whatever, and i gotta find That Island, yo. Alas, i fear homeless crackheads, and so I do not. To be honest I've only seen like 3 streets in Detroit. We went to the National Bohemian Home, where we were gonna play and checked it out. It was a burnt out, run down building! Just kidding, it was a cool burnt out somewhat rundown building from 1915. The sound man seemed very professional, and then I realized he was just a jerk. We all learned that he was NOT the soundguy, but a soundguy who was doin sound at this club. Then we all learned about his oh so interesting career troubles and preferences in sound equipment. When some girl brought him some equipment a sec later he's like "WRONG ONE. WRONG ONE! I told you it looked like THIS one. That one's WRONG. I can still use it give it to me..." sssheeeessh!! Round about then The Go showed up, and the camera guy who'd been there an hour started to film them. I got shanghaied!! They came around the corner and we start broin on down when i realize i'm in a movie version of it and want out. I'm weird? It was awkward, so we went for food. We were directed to a place by someone who thought "pretty cheap" to us meant $10 sandwiches (prolly my sweet suit). We started off seperately, but seeing Alex and Audacity, in their bright ass shirts, against the nasty, crack infested brown, grey, black, and more grey background was just too much and we had to pick'em up. We packed in the clowns, and drove to Loew's and it was expensive and bangin! We needed alot of food quickly. This was not our place. But we had crammed nine of us in the impala for fun so now we had to find food frakkin fast foo! Stupid idiots went to white castle, smarter ones went to subway and i opted for "the chinese wall" a little red shack that promises chinese food new york style. it looked pretty nasty and everything there had meat, the lady working wouldn't get off the phone. I'd say "does this have meat?" and she'd yell "pint o quart" and i'd say "nah, nah, is there meat in this?" and she'd point and yell "this pint! this quart!" I got some decent vegetable rice with all kindsa goodies in it, and a pork spring roll she'd assured me had no meat. I spat it out and cursed her when i ate it later on the street. She was MEAN! And on the phone the entire time! I respect her. She probably has guns in her face on the regular. They got bullet proof glass at SUBWAY there, fer Bob's sakes. They put your sandwich in a little revolving door, it's sad. So baby pie no funs decided to walk and we drove comfortably back to the club. We met Annette, who designed the super cool poster for the show. She likes John K's blog and knows what a multi plane camera is, coolbeans. She also did the super cool art for The Go's new BubbleGum record which was the reason we were there in the first place. It is called Knock Knock, Bananna and I haven't heard it!! It's driving me crazy, knowing that the better, wiser, Go got a record to school my ass an I can't even listen to it! Matt has just asked that I talk more about our meal. 2 2f 1t Ksus dbl. Matt had two hamburgers one of which i saw him eat. I felt proud to not eat meat then and left. From what i hear, Kyle also had two hamburgers, but decided to add some fries to his order. Next up was Lee, who did me proud by smartly avoiding the chicken rings (chicken rings), and requested for himself one hamburger, to be supplemented with an order of tater tots. He ate tater tots after spitting out his first bite of white castle's nasty excuse for a burger. All drank water and ketchup for sustenance. They had a double drive thru...The clear yellow record came out on Belly Ache Candy Shoppe and I can't for the life of me remember the kind gentleman's name who ran the damn thing! But he was the opposite of the chinese lady. A total gentleman. They released a frakkin candy bar! Its white chocolate (colored yellow) with bananna chips in it and ya buy it along with yer record! Genius. Naturally, we'll be releasing some record candy thing with them soon (if the secret works). oooh! what if it was like a hard candy record?! like the record was a flat, round jolly rancher??!! and you'd never ruin yer needle with that stupid idea, sorry. but it could be cool anyway. If the secret works. Then we waited while DeeJay Anytime played all the bestest bubble gum and i danced alone at the merch table. Then The Audacity played and poor Thomas was nervous as heck. I was not nervous but that's another story. The room was huge and the stage was huge and the sound guy was a jerk and had shitty sound. Both onstage and off. But of course they all played beautifully, it was just like what are you gonna do up there you know? Jerk (from alex). Anywho, we played and it was the same thing. People liked us both and bought stuff but we didn't get no party started. I guess it was fine but whatevs. The Go played and the sound STILL wasn't great! They were fantastic of course and I danced a fool. Then it was off to a lovely old home where we could stay, and the party across the street. It was fun! People would include you in the conversation and assume you had some intelligence and humor. I turned on the charm and ended up mayor of Detroit fer a minute. It was Dave Buick's house, Lee wants me to tell you. And I want to tell you that man loves me. Much more than Shelby, who thinks I'm OK, i think. We all had a lovely time, whether sleeping at the comfy home across the street or winnin over the locals at Dave's. The next moring we had honest john's, it was delish brah! Omelettes all around! Detroit Ruled Shit after all!! Thanks Detroit!
