best day ever

today we went for breakfast at a mexican place called MR NATURAL. it was amazing. japanther were sat on the table next to us. we haven't seen them in so long. they are the nicest. they asked us to tour with them in november. i hope that happens.


after lunch we set off for our first show of the day, which was a gorilla vs bear showcase with nite jewel at quacks bakery. they where running 2 hrs behind. we couldn't hang around as we had another show straight after this one across town, so we decided to ditch it and head to the second show. it's good to play as much as possible, but if one showcase is running late, then your whole sechedule gets knocked out.

the second show was a kinda round robin event for this shoe company called saucony. 4 outdoor stages and 4 bands all taking it in turns to play back to back - they called it FOUR SQUARE PUNKS. in the middle there was a roller skating ring. it's so nice playing shows outside. we haven't played a show inside yet.

we got free shoes:
