Then he warms the giant sky,
inside your chest


So, many thanks to everyone who came last night, apparently we were good, which is great, because if we weren't, I wouldn't be in such good spirits right now. So, thank you for coming.
I was surprised, playing without the aid of alcohol was actually easier for me, yet the intense feeling of an icepick being stabbed into my brain made things a little more difficult. After screaming in a the last new song, I was pretty sure either my eye would pop out or I'd have a spasm and fall over dead.
Between the two shows I played yesterday, my entire possible take:
2 pints of bourbon
many beers
a fruit tray
a cheese & cracker plate
a pack of cigarettes
cheese pizza
and the funny thing was that, despite all the free stuff I got for playing with Port Huron, the best part of my free food/beverage intake was when I took my first bite of the pizza Wetlands bought for the bands. That was truly awesome.
