day 2 - last resort tour

Sitting in Tyson's family home in Chilliwack...2pm.

First gig went over well, at Pub 340 in Vancouver last night. Los Furios kicked ass as always -- great to hear some of the new songs! -- and Karmacanix had a great energy and cool stage show. Some of the guys promised they'd be well improved from when we last played with them, and I had to agree!

It was also great to see a bunch of friends from back in the day at the show that we hadn't seen in awhile! Jer and Elyse, Megan and Chris, Beth, the Malaspina actresses, Ska-T, Lisa and Kevin, some of Scot's relatives...

The only annoying part was that the soundman is a knob... I didn't deal with him directly, but he had Scot and Chris (Furios) absolutely boiling over. Soundcheck was supposed to be at 8:30, show at 9... and he didn't even show up until 9:10. He lives upstairs from the club. *shrug*

Walked around most of downtown Vancouver with Dave and Tyson in the morning... big ups to Rickys for the breakfast. The rest of the guys are somewhere in Maple Ridge after staying with Kyle Furios, and surely rallying some playstation.

Gig at Elusions in Chilliwack tonight... lotsa relatives o' Tyson to be there, apparently. Should get rowdy. Tyson's dad keeps feeding us beef jerky.
