I'm sitting at "hot corner's" in Athens, GA. We're on the second show of our mini "hot indie scene cities" tour, which hit Chapel Hill, NC yesterday. Both cities are effing great and I can endorse them fully. Last night a rapper named L who works at the cat's craddle club did whalebone with us and did a pretty darn good job of it. I'm getting a flood of memories as we drive further and further south. It's been a long time since I've been in this part of the world and I'm just now remembering how much I love it here. I'm looking forward to catfish, and Nick and I have both decided to try boiled peanuts which we were both too wussy to try before.

The next thing we need is to find one of those fireworks warehouses to really bring back the old feeling.

Tonight is the last show with "men, women and children" opening. They have been really nice to us, and I'm sure we'll be seeing more of them.
