Final Chuckles

Dropped over $50 on vegan/vegetarian food for our trip back downstate. Such healthy beasts we are. One last long haul of our gear into the truck and back home....certainly have sore muscles from having to carry it around this cold weather and in general.

Did some early morning recording for our upcoming EP.

Day Two: B-U-F-F-A-L-O

Nice, very nice...to pick up old vintage the Smiths and some other lovely tunes. Played to a two hands full of people, but not before we first visited the Niagara Falls....lovelier in person....than in computer pictures life.

People of Buffalo, very supportive, provided us with much needed information for a second follow up show sometime next year. Dali's Ghost, lovelier in person than in myspace life....thanks for having us. It was great...but the night was not over until some drinks were had and gear brought back into to the hotel room.

Tommorrow, we set out back home to NYC. Alot was realized in this micro-tour....most importantly assured us to keep pushing on...this little dream...this little fantasy...that we call music.

Goodnight

Micro Tour: Day One

Departure: 2:20pm
Arrival: 6:40
Where: Syracuse, Funk n Waffles
Mood: Tired, excited
Highlights: Perplexing, Walter, Tequilas, Bjork wannabes, and the one and only Ana

Funk n Waffles; not quite a music venue and not quite a coffee shop.....we were a bit hesitant that our sound would not be translated well in such a venue, but it nevertheless did. We played to the locals that gave us much needed support and attention.

Had but a mere plain Waffle......covered in enough syrup to wet 20 pancakes......nothing but sweet, sweet sugar in our empty stomachs.

Later at night, we were held captive by a certain individual who took us uptown, downtown, and after numerous rounds of shots of tequila, we found ourselves defeated and more perplexed than Perplex itself. His mission was accomplished, Syracuse was indeed an interesting place and we promised to come back and give him a ring when we do and if we do.....oh Syracuse.

Discovered interesting record shop in downtown, made a mental note to stop by tommorrow morning to pick up some much needed good music for our ride onto our next stop.

Dutch ovens were awaiting us in the hotel room, not only to warm our cold bodies but also our spirits, with laughter, with drunkkard laughter that kept us up into the wee wee hours.

Life on the road.....such beautiful disarray.

Much love to the people of Syracuse and Bitch Cassidy thanks for having us.
