New York! (kindof)

Ok so we played New york yesterday and instead of playing the city we played in Stanton Island. The show was how do you say.... interesting. The place seemed like a total Mafia place and it was yet another show on this tour where we had to be done by 10 because they were having "dance club night" after we were of stage. So the night goes on and like 100 people showed up which was cool but at the same time we normally do around 300 in the city so we were a little bummed to play so far away. I guess its a real hassle to get to the island from the city so allot people didn't show up.
So the night goes on and we played a good show and then headed to an Ihop for some food before crashing out.
Crashing out in Newark NJ we were all a little sketched out. I was so sketched out i crashed in my cloths representing the ZERO CREW! hahahahha!
I guess i was tired if i never even got out of my cloths ahah!
So we wake up this morning and D.j. calls Bryan to inform him that the van has been broken into. Now this wasn't just a smash and grab job. These guys poped out the whole key lock to the big sliding door on the van and took out GPS and some of Jason's stuff (he wasn't with us when we got to the hotel initially). So all this to start off a great day! :(

We are now in Pittsburgh with a night off and we are planning on hitting up an Irish pub a couple miles away so I'll update you on the rest tomorrow!
Cheers!

Passout Tour update #2

VA Beach!
I have to start by saying that Bill, Bry, D.j, and I went to Applebee's for dinner and I had the best dinner at Applebee's I've ever had. Lately I've been going to the gym with Bill trying to work off this gut I've become not such a fan of. On top of that I've givin up drinking soda (other than Jack and Diet) and have been trying to eat a little better. So last night I had the garlic basil chicken from the weight watchers menu and it was FANTASTIC! I had no idea that a dinner with only 300 calories could taste that good! Hopefully the next time you all see me I'll have one of those washboard stomachs hahahhah!
Last nights show was really great! Pretty cool venue, good sound (off stage), and one crazy drunk ass crowd! I swear at least 5 people on average were on stage attempting to dance but falling all over the place hahah it was quite amusing. I watched 2 or 3 people dive into the crowd only to find the floor was allot closer than they thought hahah! I have to give a little shout out to the Jack Move guys for comin out to the show, we haven't seen those guys in a few years and it was really great to see them! Thanks for the beers boys!
So Justin (merch guy) and I got back to the hotel and when we got to our room we found that our T.V. looked like it had been ripped out of the wall, chords and all (we know how to pick the quality hotel rooms), needless to say we got a new room. Well I passed out pretty quickly and when I woke I found that we had an ocean view! I was pretty stoked on this so I took a photo for all of you.
No Its not quite AMAZING but hey when you wake up to a different smelly city on a daily basis this is definitely a nice change.

So i leave the room to head down to the van this morning only to find that the elevator is broke and i have to travel down 5 floors using the stairs (i told you we pick the winners) hahaha! I get down to the van to find Bryan cleaning out and condensing the various liquids we have floating around the van, water, beer, and wine. I had to get a photo of this cause it was classic.

What you are seeing is Bryan pouring one jug of shitty 5 dollar wine, into another hahahah! Isn't tour glamorous!!!


Ok well I think that's all the ranting for today! I hope you all enjoyed it!
Cheers,
JIM
