Desert Heat in the summer is very FO REAL. Only a few of us wake up to load in. We haul hundreds of pounds of equipment and merchandise over the blazing concrete into the gigantic baseball stadium, which doubles as the spring training facility of the Chicago White Sox . It s a 45 minute trek upstairs and down walkways into a pocket of grass a good three quarters of a mile away from where the rest of our stuff is. Aba is mad. 15 bottles of water deep and drenched in sweat he enters the bus enraged. The yelling discounted broadway tickets lets everyone know how serious of a situation this is.

There are nice showers discounted broadway tickets in Las Cruces so we divest of the day's dust and sunburns and chafey thighs and freshly cleaned, powdered and shaved we are on the next one, on the next one. San Antonio, TX - Its Still Very Hot. After a successful show in the AT T Center , we got to take showers in the San Antonio Spurs locker room. The shower nozzles were literally 10 feet tall. Tim Duncan and Tony Parker both showered right where we washed our feet and balls. We felt like champions, heroes, even Gods. We returned to a literal rockstar party. It is our first BBQ with the rest of the bands, finally we get time to let loose and make friends with liquor. Free booze, huge 100-patty grill, corn hole games (no disrespect) and movie screenings with Matthew Lillard (Green-haired wank from Hackers). We cracked jokes with Falling In Reverse , Of Mice and Men , The Green , Champagne Champagne , Ten Second Epic and Yellowcard . We have made a lot of new friends, and things are looking up for the boys. 10 Jack and drinks in and Scotty The Body is ready to drive the bus. Everyone gets loose and will pay for it in the morning. Houston, TX - Hard Hard Hangovers. Lotso throwing on and around the bus. The Cap takes no shit, and pushes everyone to work harder and play smarter. Everyone has hit the two week crazy point. Laughs of delirium fill the musky air in the bus. We re all realizing now that this is our life for over another month. The daily routine becomes easier and everyone is etching discounted broadway tickets out their roles in making each day the most productive, discounted broadway tickets and not quite so insane. The humid rain makes for a slippery discounted broadway tickets stage and Aba   face plants during his set.

Tony Ozier , the smooth-talking seven foot RZA , and our bass player, invites us all to his Momma's discounted broadway tickets place n Freeport, TeXas for some homecooking and Southern Hospitality. We are greeted with open arms and banquet trays of catfish discounted broadway tickets and fresh Gulf Coast shrimp, battered and fried, and so deliciously succulently buttery, its almost mean to retell the story of how awesome it was being us, for that brief exciting meal. The next morning we wake up to the smell of oak, smoking away in the pit smoker, where in hours we will eat Smoked Ribs, Brisket, Sausage, Chicken and Crawfish and the best Potato Salad i have ever eaten, PERIOD. Disgustingly full, stuffed to the gills, we immediately pack on the weight we've been losing walking 7 miles a day in the blazing hot sun. Armed with a cooler containing over one hundred beers, we rage on into the night feeling full and happy. Next Stop Dallas discounted broadway tickets . Don't Mess With Texas. Dallas, TX - The heat of Dallas won t stop the boys. Like the NFL s Cowboys we get a touchdown and The Chicharones  are ranked #2 in the Dallas Observer s Top 10 Bands To See At Warped Tour . The boys are back on hype mode. Beers are shotgunned while underage girls smear their makeup and cry. We re now heading out of Texas and making way to St. Louis, MO.
