Day 5: Whippin' Belts and Elusive Pelts.

The show last night at The Dionysus in Baltimore was a nice change of pace for us. It was refreshing to play a floor show. It has been long overdue, and nothing compares to it. Each one of us grew up playing these types of shows, and we felt right at home. Thanks to Brendan Kerwin for playing a solid acoustic set before. We could not have asked for a better Monday night tour show. We want to thank all the kind people we met in Baltimore, especially those who put us up in their home for three days. I'm sure it wasn't the easiest of things, but really...thank you.

After the show, Noah and Justin Hoekstra taught us the art of using your belt for self defense. I never realized how effective it could be.

We are off to Cleveland today. It feels good to be back in the van and covering some distance although Kelly has a Pandora station that makes me feel like I'm at a skating rink in 1989. Noah has his own back seat and Chitwood is singing all the hits and smoking little cigars. Tobacco sure is a swell vegetable. 

Leah made it to the van for this trip, and we are psyched to have the crew back together. This is how we operate the best. We may be stopping off in Pittsburgh for the evening to take in some of the sights the Steel City has to offer. Talk to you tomorrow from Cleveland. 

Love,

Waylon Speed
