I'll start with the cretin hop in seattle! i havent played there yet, but ive checked it out and it seems way killer!!! That place sounds sweet but that's not really a tour story. Share some of your out-of-town tales! My favorite tour memory happened in Las Vegas. We were on tour with a band called Madison (drive-thru records) and a band called Chase The Sun (from Oregon, I think?). After a late night in St. George where some craziness happened: the show turned into a riot after Horse The Band played, we had a huge vegan bbq, all of us had the runs in the poor girl's apartment we were all staying at, and a gruesome all-night Texas Hold'em tourney - we finally arrived in Vegas. We were playing on the Strip in a building adjacent to the M&M factory and needed to gas up. We stop at the Chevron and our guitarist starts filling it up while the rest of us went inside to get some munchies. We come out, we get in the van, we drive away - only to find out our guitarist forgot to take the pump out of the van! So, we drive about a block and half and notice a weird dragging sound. Come to find out we were dragging half the gas pump behind us. We turned around, went back to the gas station and there is gas spraying all over the place. Needless to say, we went and told the guy working there, he got pissed, and we drove away before he made us pay for anything. Ah, the good old days of touring...

one time we slept outside this creepy motel where the owner was outside sweeping the parking lot.

This is the kind of stuff that only happens in movies! ...or on tour, clearly.

I met snoop dog at a motel 6 in denver. Sparrow bought him a pizza and he told FTJ that hitting your women gets you pushed off a second story window or some shit.

well, at least I'm no longer the victim of domestic abuse. pizza? $5. Gas for the RV $150. Not getting hit by your spouse? priceless.
