Deaner's Tour Diary

this show sold out very quickly and i was looking ahead to it on the calendar all week, although monday night isn't exactly the most rock and roll night of the week. this venue is really fuckin' cool, it's a gigantic old church and the backstage area is like a maze, or something out of spinal tap. stairwells and hallways going in every direction. the dressing room is one of the nicest anywhere (complete with pool table) and they served us an amazing meal before the show. we played a nice, long, totally brown set. the music was good and ugly, reggaejunkiejew, poopship destroyer, etc. the band was super loose and i felt like i could've played all night it was so much fun. afterwards,like 30 or 40 people managed to weasel their way backstage for the usual rock and roll bullshit. the only problem is that my guitar is fucked up again, and i don't really have a backup at the moment. i'm gonna have to hit up a music store when we get to raleigh and buy a cheap mexican stratocaster to beat on i guess.
