Day off, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. Fairfax, VA. Lunch at Applebees with RB and Mars. Sleep. Mars and I walked over to a movie; The Informant – it was ok. That’s it.
Day 27: Norfolk, VA
cool mirror thing, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. They are digging up the street in front of this venue. Despite that, Norva has the best dressing rooms i’ve experienced. It was like having a huge private suite with hot tub, showers, multiple lounges, flat screen tvs, sauna, kitchen, game room, dinner area etc… ...
Day 26: Charlotte, NC
The venue, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. Some bitchin / Some good stuff: I left my shades on a park bench in front of some guy who was nodding out. I bet he’s wearing them now. Mars and i had breakfast at a place that had the world’s best faucet. Good food… Paul, ...
Day 25: Atlanta, GA
Double troubles, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. A melancholy day for some reason. Must be the middle of the tour, the grey weather, the lack of sleep, the huge tower i woke up in or the freezing dressing rooms. But a nice lunch with Amy C and the people at the Masquerade brought ...
Day 24: Off in Atlanta
Practice spot, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. Awoke in Atlanta – missed the entire drive. Passed out. My first headache of the tour. Hurriedly throw my boots on (on the outside) grab the guitar and shove some stuff in my bags. The hotel is fancy, confusingly laid-out and full of business power-people. Half ...
Day 23: Orlando, FL
Fade to Grey, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. Best show of the tour? Tonight we were at House of Blues Orlando. Without causing offense to the good residents of this area, i wasn’t getting my hopes up for this place from the minute i got off the bus and saw the massive Disney ...
Day 22: Fort Lauderdale
The Psychedelic Furs, originally uploaded by James Good. Not much sleep. Mars, Paul and I have a dip in the warm, warm Atlantic by the hotel day room. Too much sun so far this trip? Never. I’m turning into a lobster though. James takes a half day off and picks us up in the no-AC ...
Day 21: Ybor City, Tampa, FL
Cheap thrill, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. Mars made me go jet-skiing. It was probably the funniest thing we’ve done on this tour. Screaming and trying to throw each other off with the wake. Terrible. One day the inner-adult will shine through. Shame we didn’t get the whole band out really; though it ...
Day 20: ddddrive
Rolling into Florida, originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. Some statistics: So far: Miles travelled: 7,642 or thereabouts. People played to: millions. well, maybe Packs of strings: boring, and i actually have no idea. Picks: countless Movies watched: 3 (Basterds, Wrestler & Miles Davis Story) Coffee: It’s always on. Food: countless greek salads and ...
Day 19: Houston, TX
Actual photo from the space station., originally uploaded by Rich in Orderly Manor. Sadly missed the Menil Museum today – Houston is just too dang big to handle in one day and we awoke in the center of the financial district which is pretty dead on a weekend. So i just wandered the block, got ...
