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.

Hi guys and gals! I saw you at the Funk 'N Waffles show. It was great! That was the only time I have ever been there, and while it's got great atmosphere and a cool vibe, it's not the greatest live venue. But it's definitely an artsy-fartsy place; my kind of place. A good place for poetry readings, perhaps, but not as much for music. There are other places in Syracuse you could play when you come back. Anyway, it's nice to see you on blogger, as well as MySpace! Glad you had a good time in "the 'Cuse!" By the way, is the record store you mentioned The Sound Garden?

Hey Anthony...thanks again for dropping by....yes I believe the record shop was Sound Garden.

Hope to see you again in the near future.

Happy Holidays to You!
