smokes up dustbraska






so we recently got back from an awesome trip to albany to play music and see friends. happy birthday to monika and mike! and much love goes out to all of caleb lionheart, marine electric, and half hearted hero. we love youse guys

here's a recap:

we left mid afternoonish on saturday april 9th for the long haul up I-87. eric broke the seal pretty early in the journey so we all stopped for a pee break and celebatory roy rogers at one of the rest stops. as soon as we got to albany we were greeted by the birthday boy and girl themselves, mike and monika. ant booze and co. killed the 30 rack on the ride up so i made them buy another one. we cleaned up the basement for the show and then headed to the pub for some more food and beverages.

after that it was time to set up our instruments. we played probably our sloppiest sober set in a while but who cares? NOW IT WAS TIME TO PARTY! we chugged some beers and decided to get 'mystical' that night thanks to a purchase earlier in the day. the marine electric killed it as usual. i love those dudes. fumblerooski and half hearted were awesome as well. then it came down to caleb lionheart who absolutely destroyed that basement with their sexyness. by that time there was a thick haze in the air from all the dust that had gotten kicked up. needless to say it was getting hard to breathe.
once the show was over we headed back inside for some more brew-has and card games. 5 card poker and an intense game of go fish were played. now that there were no more beers and my lock-jaw was wearing off we decided it was time to retire to the van. we had a few drunken sing-alongs to the bee gees, got irie, and called it a night.

the next morning was a sweaty wake up. we gotta remember to open the windows at night. once everyone was awake we took a journey around the area. found a sick skate spot and took some photos. then we went to the bbq spot around the corner we had been smelling since the night before. pulled pork sandwiches bay-bay!
now it was time to say our good byes and visit our friends tara and mark who lived only ten minutes away. they cooked us more food and coffee and we pieced together the parts of the night that got lost in inebriation. we got funny over some ganja plant and played zombie video games. now it was time to hit the road back home. said thanks to our gracious hosts and we were on our way. we all had way too much fun for our own good and cant wait to be back in albany!
