Sometimes on long drives I get motivated to do things that I might not normally do. Yesterday I decided to look back through our tour history and make a list of the bands we've toured with or played shows with so far. This might not be complete and it doesn't include the many local bands we have shared the stage with because they usually aren't listed by name. But here is a first draft and it is pretty incredible to think back through all of the memories that surround these names. Enjoy:

There are some moments where the inspiration is so great that it clouds judgment. Those moments yield either true triumph, or utter destruction. Fortunately, I am still here to write this... :)
