Sitting in my chair in probably the worst super 8 motel I’ve been so far (they don’t even have wifi… so I’m using my tethered phone)

Since the last update we played Cleveland, which was awesome, thanks to Mike for letting us play at Wilbert’s, and thanks to Thorn Apple and Rachel Roberts for sharing the stage with us! Then we were off to Chicago where we met with Matt Campbell from the Chicago Talking Machine and had the pleasure to discover Pillow Talk (they’re new and they’re good!). There we stayed with a friend of ours who’s been living in Chicago for years now. It looks like it’s a really nice city. I would like to come back there and stay a little longer to have time to visit a bit, maybe when it’s warmer so that I can go chill on the beach for a while! Oh and of course, plenty of vegan options there, which is always nice!

Yesterday we went to Bloomington, IN, where we played to an almost empty room (thanks for the few of you who were there and enjoyed the show!). I have to say though that I did not like the town all that much… Maybe I didn’t get to see the good side of it? Anyhow, moving on… tonight is Pittsburgh for the second to last show of our tour.

I am looking forward to having a trailer and be a little free-er. Eating out is ok but I miss cooking and having a place to play and practice for myself. Living on the road is awesome anyway, and I am certainly not eager to come back to my sedentary life (even though it’s only for a short while).

See you in Pittsburgh!
