Wary of the difficulty to find decent vegetarian & vegan food on the road, we left prepared yesterday afternoon. We’d cooked a few dishes that we could eat hot or cold and took them with us in our trusty ice box, and I’m glad we did! First gig yesterday in Philly, and absolutely no place to eat… That’s when our “chickpeas romesco” came to the rescue (thanks Vegonomicon for this awesome recipe!)

Anyhow, on to the show, we’re headlining. As our tour is 10 days longs, we couldn’t bring everyone on the road with us so we’re doing it as a duo; and headlining as an acoustic duo after 2 full bands opening with keys & drums & violins & guitars is not an easy thing! Thanks for those who came and stayed, we really appreciate it!

And as a good Samaritan, our friend James offered us a place to stay for the night. Thanks so much for the shelter, we’ll return the favor when you need a place to crash in NY (or anywhere we are once we’re in our trailer!) Oh and for those who don’t know them, James has a band called The Sobriquets and you should definitely check them out 🙂

It’s now 7pm, we just arrived in our motel room in Athens after an 8hr drive and we’re ready to go check out the open mic at Donkey Coffee.
