in the van
8-10-08
hey there. out on the road with matt pryor having tons of fun. yesterday we drove through wyoming and as the mountains started to creep up, the rolling hills looked like a frozen ocean. every day we try to find a local brewery to try different brews, which has been interesting and fun fun fun. we ate at squatters brewery in salt lake city last night and matt and i both tried the Devastator, which is their strongest ale. good! it's a lot of fun being back in the van and seeing the gorgeous scrolling landscapes.
so, we've played four shows and each show has been a blast. i've been playing your requests which you guys emailed me, and also a bunch of requests taken at the show. as an experiment, i've also been doing these super weird drawings and selling them. the first night in minneapolis i sold out of all my drawings, so i figured if the demand is there, i'll keep doing them. it's actually a lot of fun! and since each drawing is totally one of a kind and definitely cannot be reproduced, whoever buys the drawings has a unique piece of chris conley memorabilia which no one else in the world can get their hands on. fun.
today we have a day off and we're driving up into washington state to camp out and cook out before crossing the border into cananda for monday's show in vancouver. stoked for a night in the woods. and perhaps we'll find another brewery and sample their lager! it's been great to hang out with all you guys at the shows. it's nice to be face to face and share the smiles! well, hope you're doing fine and i hope to see you soon at one of our shows!
