Casper, WY

Well today counts a step forward and a step backward in terms of "becoming successful."

I am currently playing in my first arena ever. Usually used for hockey, the Casper Civic Center is huge! Its a good experience... I have already learned a boat load.

However, the promoter failed 100% and we only sold 250 tickets in a 10,000 seat configuration. It is quite sad looking.

At least the heat is not on me for that one.

San Francisco, CA

Well i finally made it to san francisco and made it to a world famous landmark: the golden gate bridge. Where we got into a car v. bus accident. I believe this is the first car accident i have ever been in... Under very bizarre circumstances.

So right now the 24 of s are sitting on the tour bus with the bridge as our backdrop waiting for police reports to be completed.

And all we want is to get to our hotel which is about 40 minutes south.

Oh, and im sick.

Bye!

spokane update

Its now 2pm and the show was supposed to be at 4 and crew has finaLly just arrived at the theater. Needless to say, trying to condense our 8 hour preshow process into a 2 hour endeavour is a wee bit daunting. The show has officially been delayed 30 min to help us out a bit... Oh goodness this is going to be a rough day.

almost to Spokane, WA

The entire company is stopped in the miidle of Washington state about 3 hours away from our next performance venue. The highway we need to take is getting closed down as a result of a huge dust storm which is causing a brown out of the entire area. Our truck and crew (which left 3 hours before the company) is at a dead stop somewhere in the middle of the storm. The truck dricer, Brian (who is also our soung engineer) was afraid of the truck tipping over brcause the winds are so strong.
