I love Boise. I also hate Boise. We all agree! Here are the archetypes – disinterested frat dude.. “play stairway!” – Nice. Typical bums, thirtysomethings, nothing too spectacular. People have tattoos of Idaho, can you believe that? We thought people in Provo were shy but Boise takes the cake. Everytime I whacked the snare it felt like I was stabbing some of these people in the heart. LOL. Freals. Haha Although, the bartenders loved us and that’s cool. We played at The Bouquet which is a huge nice place. The other band we played with were extremely nice and bought us chinese. Leave it to Greg to have his birthday at a bar in Idaho with free drinks and food. They were feeding us this Fernette (sp?) crap that smelled like jaeger but tastes like hippies and you’re supposed to wash it down with ginger ale and I’m convinced it was an evil plot to kill us. During the second band this one lady was relentlessly shredding some epic ballet drunken tornado dance. BUT, Little did anyone know that Michael Jackson was about to enter the body of Tony Michael Trautz. He showed her up reeeeeal good. He said it was only for Gregs birthday. He’s been practicing in front of the luckiest mirror in the world for 22 years for this exact moment. A glorious moment it was. Ashlee and her bf let us crash which was much appreciated. Tony bought breakfast burritos. Every street here is called Mallard street. I thought there were ducks laughing at me in the night but I was quickly corrected that they are MALLARDS. I will shoot a Mallard before I die. We stopped in Nampa but our biker bar was closed so we dropped into El Diamante Club which is the finest Mexican cocaine-front in Nampa. Greg made the best bloody Mary from a spicy V8 which I am extremely jealous of. Hes sleeping and i might take it. Tony turned my burrito into an ass-burrito. Right now we’re driving through Oregon towards a huge rainy mountain. Edwall is the text driving master. Whatever you say to him for the next two weeks better be damn funny cause it may end our lives. Haha Props to big Eddy for so much driving. We are definitely far away and we definitely miss our family and friends. Hit us up!
