Homesick
After my day off in Wisconsin Dells, I was ready to take on the last half of the tour. Our team took on both Milwaukee yesterday and today in Cincinnati beautifully. That was very much needed rest and relaxation.In other news, I’ve just been getting homesick lately. Don’t get me wrong, I love the experience of touring, I love meeting new people, listening to music all day, working and living with my team members, but I miss my friends and family. A lot of my other team members at least got to/get to see their friends in their home cities about half-way through the tour while my hometown and all my friends are practically the last couple of days of the tour so I have to wait the full two month. Kind of sucks. I’ve just been coping and calling them as much as I can. All I can do for now is wait.
But yea, everything else is going great. Like I mentioned, I feel re-energized (and feel good that we won’t have any more stretches more than 6 days long…whew). We only got one more month (actually more like 3 weeks left) which blows my mind thinking of how fast the past month of shows has just flew by, I still have so many more bands to see, so many more people to meet…I just hope I leave this tour exhausted from all the things I’ve done instead of wishing I had done more. Which is why I’m going to start today and hit the water park that only open to Warped Tour people! Tomorrow it’s off to Cleveland to see the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to check out the Warped Tour exhibit (which I’m REALLY excited about).
O and btw…I just caught myself on Fuse right now dancing on the Family Force 5 stage like an idiot HA!. I hope everyone is watching clips of us on Fuse, you can watch it all on their website at fuse.tv. I’m known to some as “the guy on the laptop that opened up Warped Wednesday”, haha.
Alright, to all my So Cal buddies out there, I better see you all at the San Diego or Carson (my hometown!) show! It’ll be a great welcome home present!
