we drove out to grand rapids michigan after new york and drove the prettiest drive of the tour through pennsylvania in the evening....and then foggy ohio...

before new york we were in boston...which is one the of greatest cities in the country...rivers and brown city...i love boston so much...

we made it to new york city!!! and i am excited!!! the driving
was surprisingly not so bad for me in the big town...i love
new york city but we were glad to leave the crazy....it seems like
you would definately lose your mind if you spent too much
time there...it's a soulless place...

our show was in a cool spot right in the flatiron district
we got to go out to a fancy dinner with some big shot

music industry folks and i ate calamari and swordfish!!
empire state building sideways.

at my request, we made it up to lowell after playing albany on our way to boston
and visited jack kerouac's grave! what an amazing and special and memorable experience for me...i bought some childrens crayons and did some rubbings too...really cool thing...

we made it to niagara falls!!! It was really amazing...it was huge...

it was crazy to see, even thrilling like a roller coaster or

jumping off a bridge....sort of spooky even to look at and think about...

we made a big beautiful drive through new york over to
the buffalo area right near canada and played a huge
festival show with blood sweat and tears...a huge festival
of thousands of burnouts...but really fun and good

a live action shot...
we are happy...

philadelphia was a rad town...after the show we
all went and enjoyed philly cheese steaks....

in poughkeepsie new york we spent some time climbing

the walls of an alley....i made it up like seventy feet probably...
