Chicago, IL - Red Line Tap was a blast, wonderful people, and we enjoyed cutting loose for Johnny's birthday. Fortunately this was also the night before the Cavs sufficiently eliminated the Bulls from the playoffs, so conflict was avoided there.
Janesville, WI - Back Bar was a terrific show, an inspiring stage plus welcoming folks helped us have a great time, much thanks to the incredibly talented Roxtar for hosting and letting us stretch out and jam. I also had quite the splendid run on a portion of the Ice Age Trail, very beautiful, check it out if you're into parks and stuff.
Algona, IA - Afterlife Lounge brought us a rare pairing with hardcore/metal bands (don't mean to misrepresent them with incorrect titles but I'm just not privy to the endless myriad of genres that occupy the metal world anymore) Stone Park Ritual and Elisium were badass, enjoyed rocking out with them. And big thanks to Kolt for putting us up, check out Mighty Midwest Tattoo & Airbrush Studio for anybody in Iowa looking for quality ink and airbrush work.
Keokuk, IA - At L Treyns we had another unique experience getting to share the stage with some young up & comers. Trystan Grisham is a fine talent with a bright future ahead of him, looking forward to seeing Trystan blow people's minds. And his lovely family was kind enough to allow us dirtbags to take showers in their home; truly generous and we can't thank them enough for the hospitality.
Pontiac, IL - Punctuating this run was an opening slot for Tremonti at Freakster's Roadhouse. This was truly a badass show, Mark Tremonti was incredibly sweet and talented, the Freakster's crowd was generous, and we had an all around great time. A perfect way to cap an exhausting five days.
The experience was most excellent, diverse, and well worth the hours of sleep and gallons of sweat lost in the process.
In just three days we will be playing at Summercamp in Chillicothe, IL!!!
Do not miss this incredible festival!!!
More soon,
Ty
