Collyer, Kansas.
Greetings again from I-70. We’re calling this interstate our “long driveway” to our homes… we’ve been on it since Ohio, and we’ll be on it until we exit for our neighborhoods at home in Colorado. We’re about 4.5 hours from home as I write this… and about 50 miles from Prairie Dog Town! (see 2008 Road Journal for reference)
We had a fun show last night at the Canoe Club, with a nice attentive room for most of the show, and plenty of copies of the album distributed. Good dinner, too. We love the gigs where dinner is included on top of our compensation (and not taken out of it).
All in the all the tour was really good for us – great camaraderie for the band, more hours logged playing live and tightening our sets, lots of exposure to new ears, great networking and friendship with Keller Williams and crew, and a chance to see a good chunk of the country. We’re looking at a Pacific Northwest tour for August, a West Coast tour (San Diego and north) in September, and a return to the East Coast in October, along with shows in Colorado in between. We’ll rekindle the Road Journal for those… in the meantime, check back over the next week or so as we retroactively add the rest of our photos into the posts below.
Anton leaves for Ireland tomorrow (back to back trips!), so I’ll be working on Backstage content for much of this week, and starting vocal recordings for the new album we’re planning to release this summer.
Thanks for traveling with us!
