peanuts and beer in our hair
October 8, 2007
milwaukee turned out as one of the best shows on this tour. it was throw your peanuts on the floor night and we made it throw your peanuts on the band night, we threw peanuts at each other , ran around the bar, and played really really loud. it was the best time ever. and milwaukee is beautiful. from there we drove to chicago and played a noon show at a record store, where we started getting drunk for the night, then drove 4 hours to detroit, and arrived at some DIY heaven house. the kids running that house (called trumbullplex) where cool, let us stay there after the show and even offered to take us to the beach, but we declined and drove to fort wayne indiana. The Brass Rail, where we played, is a small bar with a mixed audience, a jukebox, and free Busch beer for as long as you can hold it in. That show was really good, people were nuts for us, and we played with some very kind people that were generous enough to not only take us in, but to show us dvds of bands they like the whole night through.
we’re meeting up today with Monotonix, our dear friends from Israel. this is exciting. like barbarians of the same land meeting in some distant battlefield….or something.
