So today was a driving day. En route to Boston we stopped in Poukipsee to meet up with Drie from synestheticlight.com and go check out the Pines resort in the Catskills. We were going to go to Concorde too but there is very little light these days, so we only had time for the Pines. wow lovely huge place. Totally didn’t see all of it, but she took me to the highlights. i got me a “new” pines summer camp tshirt as well 🙂 i took a same picture as eatstoomuchjam, the mossy desk drawers. we’ll see how it looks hehe. Drie was way cool, gonna have to plan a trip back out there on a weekend to do Hudson psych. I haven’t looked at my pictures yet. I bought a card reader at walmart cuz i figured i’d take tons of pics at byberry, take pics at one of the shows, and need to clear the card. but byberry was boring, and i haven’t taken the digital to any shows, and it’s pretty worthless without a tripod so it didn’t get alot of use at the Pines either, so i don’t feel like opening the reader up. i’ll just take it back to walmart back home.
So currently in a hotel in Revere, MA (reveah if you live around here haha). There are 2 bands staying in the hotel tonight. but not trent haha we’re in a freaking rodeway haha. oh!! haha on the drive from wilkes barre to poukepsie, we passed this red tour bus. at the WB show, the same red tour bus showed up at the venue. it was the last bus to arrive. after soundcheck and we were being herded around the arena, adr2 was spying on the security guards to try to find out how they were going to let us on the floor, and she overheard them saying that Trent was late arriving at the arena which was why the soundcheck was so late. incase you haven’t guessed, red bus arriving last at the arena, same red bus on the highway in the direction of boston….we noticed the connection and put a hi trent sign in the window as we passed HAHA we’re insane.
Trying to get tickets to the show tomorrow. Crap balcony tickets still available, but we’re gonna see if anyone from cragislist gets back to me, and see what shows up tomorrow in the drop line. we’ll have to settle for nose bleeds in the end, because we know that the show we don’t go to will be the show they do the meet and greet at (like NYC for example). kate’s not going with me to toronto on thurs anymore for the show so i have an extra ticket. can’t scalp it cuz it’s a fan club ticket. called tony to see if he can find leo at work and ask if he wants it. can’t think of anyone who might want to go. anyone local reading this, if you want it, let me know. eric – i know you work, and i’m going up way early to try to get into sound check, but you can take it if you want.
i really need new socks. they all have holes.
oh and on the mass pike, a radio station did an emergency broadcast that wasn’t just a test. i’ve never heard one that wasn’t a test before. they used to scare the crap out of me when i was a kid, much like the Durez siren. but the emergency broadcast was for an amber alert of a missing girl abudcted by her mom. by the time we got to the hotel they had been found.
