Found some cute pictures

After stealing everyone's pictures to update the tour video I found some cute ones....
aww Chazzy, Andy not looking, Me and Madge

Me and Fingeret shortly after our wedding, until everything went to shit in San Francisco-he was sleeping with that whore!

California here I come

San Diego, LA, San Jose, San Francisco. All in 10 days. Okay okay I admit the west coast is beautiful and California is awesome. I said it. I saw Sea lions which turned me into a four year old. Went to Fisherman's Wharf, Haight Ashbury, Golden Gate Park, and Castro. Saw JGR. Made dinner for everyone. Went to the tech museum with Willard. And lastly saw some family. Laura Dedona is hysterical and I love her can't wait to read her book. And fantastic Laura and Lois made me eggplant parmesean. It was so nice to feel at home even though I am so far away. Well we are off to Tahoe tomorrow! My wish is about to come true! Here's some pictures

West Coast HO!

So since I have updated I have been to Oklahoma, Arizona, New Mexico and I am now in California. It was quite a drive through the desert and mountains to get here. Very long drives on "the ten" and so forth. Saw Chaz's friend's band in Tucson, partied there. New Mexico is beautiful. Participated in a tourist trap and got robbed of a dollar. Oh and least I not forget my mother's trip to Kansas City where she became the hot commodity on my tour. Everyone loves her wants her to return visit. And she got drunk at the casino and danced with everyone.

The Saints and Kentucky

So we spent the weekend in St Louis. Which was okay, saw Assassins which I was not a fan of at all. Circled around the arch as it was impossible to fucking get to. Been in Kentucky since yesterday. Went to a natural bridge it was beautiful. I got all decked out for St. Patty's. Nothing much else here, going to Louisville tomorrow. Want to tour the factory! And mom's coming Friday!

Recovery

Well I'm finally feeling better. I didn't get to experience Houston because I was very sick. Upper respiratory infection and I had to get my stomach pumped, not fun. That's it I'm kicking the habit no more black tar heroin I don't want to OD and go through that ordeal again....just kidding mom. No but seriously one of the worst, most disgusting experiences of my life. And my stomach still isn't happy. It is not used to having food in it again, so it is upset by the stupidest things. Houston was good met Wino's family who are awesome. Love his dad who gave me a giant bear hug, also got to meet his friends which was great also. Well we are in Dallas now, thought maybe I could reconnect with an old college friend, but so far no dice.

Goodbye Sweet Nawlins

Well our time in Nawlins has sadly come to an end. Partied on Bourbon St, ate alligator and crawfish. Which were very interesting. Got to see Ravayna which was awesome. Had the most delicious oysters I have ever had in my life. Yes I did a lot of eating. But it was also sad and interesting to see a city still devestated after two years. When I think back to 9/11, I guess I was far enough removed from the city that I didn't have to face it everyday. But driving around and seeing the destruction and spray painted symbols still on the houses is a constant reminder. Talking to Vay was good too, getting an inside prespective of what really happened. My heart goes out to the residents of New Orleans, thank you for letting me share your beautiful city and still having such a positive and welcoming nature.

Memphis and Nawlins

So I went to Graceland, it was pretty cool. Partied in Memphis as well. (check) Now we are in Nawlins for 6 days which is amazing. Have been to Bourbon Street every night since Thursday which is hitting my bank account pretty hard, but when am I going to come back to Nawlins? I have had my first poboys, I'm ready to eat crawfish like a local. Today we walked around the French Quarter, from the Riverfront to passed Bourbon. Went and got my cards read, which was a lot better this time than I have gone before. This guy hit some things pretty right on about my past and me in general. Don't know about if the future stuff ill come true but I'm not going to be paranoid about it. Oh and we got some Beignets, as you can see by my pictures.

Greetings from Nashville Y'all

So Things are better for the weekend. I mean not fantastic. We went into Nashville yesterday and partied from 6:00-1:30. Wino and I went to the Grand Ole Opry and it was so nice for just the two of us to get away for a bit. Nashville was so much fun, we went to some awesome bars, some cheap beer. Also I got to tear it up with the locals country swing dancing with Andy. It was such a good time and it makes it worth it to hang out on the weekend and let go.

Short Week of Hell

It is becoming apparent that there are three people I could definitely do without on this tour. That just drive me up the fucking wall. And my migraines are acting up. Fantastic. Today was a shitty day, the lights went to crap. I feel like I'm losing contact with the company. I don't know, I haven't been doing anything different this tour though.

The Shit has hitith the fan

Ow man, SO week three. Honeymoon period is way over and done with and lying in a ditch somewhere. Things are getting testy here on the road. But hopefully things will smooth over by the end of the week. We did a show for high school students today, which is not what the show is geared towards at all. It was quite interesting. Well more pictures before I'm off to bed.

Savannah Savannah

Well "Savannah goes wild at night, ya'll" to quote local hot gay guy walking adorable dog we met. And he was not kidding. We went to the Riverfront, which is an absolutely beautiful place to commit sin. Some of us went to numerous bars and hung out till 1:30, some of us stayed till 3:30. The bars are great and if you ever go to Savannah I recommend Wet Willies, The Bar Bar, and the Warehouse. Also got there in time to take some beautiful pictures on the water. Good times were had by all, and some think I did things I regret (don't worry mom nothing bad) but I don't regret a damn thing.

Week Two

Start of week two has been interesting thus far. We had some humps in the road. I think things are better now. We are in Savannah for the weekend. It is beautiful here 74 degrees today. I have been taking a lot of pictures lately, I miss photography and probably should have minored in it like I wanted to. We had a fun night last night, I needed that after the week I had. It's rough being away from the family when things happen at home. But I have a good group here. Well I leave you with Chaz's model picture

Day 3?

So we are on the road again. Our first show was pretty shitty in a Cafetorium where the kids ate lunch right afterwards. Then the 2nd show we were supposed to have a double. They first show was cancelled. Awesome. But the venue sucked balls. Then we loaded out in the rain and had to sit 7 hours in the van to Alexandria. Went into DC I played tour guide. I finally got to go to the Spy Museum. We are in an actual theater tomorrow should be amazing. Well back to the superbowl and then line through. Shoot me.

A Haunting Visit From the Past

So tomorrow is the first day of tech. We had a very interesting load out of the rehearsal space. The trailer was not packed correctly, nor the set wrapped. Therefore made me very stressful. I hope things go better the next time we pack the trailer. I am getting such a pleasant visit from the past tomorrow I can't wait. Not looking forward to it at all. I was told today that apparently I have made the cast have high expectations of my skills. I don't know how I did that. I don't consider myself a pompous person, and it's ironic that this comment came from one of the most pompous people here. Whatever, not going to harp too much on it. All in a days work, well off to finish some sound cues.

New Tour New People, Same Fucking Show

The title says it all. We are less then a week from leaving. It's an interesting group dynamic. I'm missing home a lot and I know that it's just because I am so close right now. I know once I get on the road things will be fine. I think I should definitely write a lot more not only here but in my journal. It helped me a great deal last tour. The show is ready to roll, bring on tech. I have essentially had a single here at the HOJO's. My two roommates have "friends" in which they spend the night with. There's only one man in my life at this time and he is an awesome cuddler, and doesn't give me any lip. That's right the world is better because of Mr. Lion.
