Yo so this is my first post of this tour. Hope you’re doing well. I guess the last time Matt Checked in was while we were in LA. To start, the west coast was off the hook. I want to thank Kenny and the rest of the Comadre crew for having us at Kinda Like A Fest. That was one of the favorite shows that I have ever played with this band. The best part of KLAF was getting to see so many Incredible bands. The next couple days were sort of a blur. We got to play a few incredible shows with Touche Amore and Hour of The Wolf. Please check out Touche Amore. I have never met a more sincere group o dudes playing such incredible music. We played in Reno, I blew $2 on a slot machine and then spent the rest of the night heckling people at the card tables. After California we headed to Vancouver. I had never been to Canada before and to be honest I was totally suprised at how cool and receptive everyone was, the show was incredible. We got to hang at Flex Your Head Radio for a bit, if you want to hear us sounding dumb on the radio you can download the podcast here After Vancouver we headed to one of my all time places to play, Tacoma WA. Getting to play with Touche Amore again combined with getting to see a lot of people who I have really missed made this one of my favorite nights of tour so far. The past few nights we played in SLC and Denver with Crooked Ways, a really really cool band from Denver. Last night we played at the Waterloo AMVETS in Waterloo Iowa. Everywhere we go I brag about the Connecticut punk and hardcore scene. Waterloo Iowa is the first place I have ever been that rivals CT, that’s saying a lot. I want to thank Former Thieves, Andrew, and Ben for everything. We are making our way home. I’m really excited for the next stretch. Thank you to everyone who has caught a show so far. This tour has been one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Take care. - James MDAM
