Washington Da Capo


We all may have Malaria, it turns out - again, if we have had it before, or had had it - but this time it's different, chilled, German. Looking down from a bunk bed, nothing makes sense even though things are where they've always been compared to how we remember them being, before. A little sweat, then sleep again, then song.

Up Crook.


Down Crook.


His corner.


Can you spot 9K?


My long-lost twin, reunited through armageddonous bass moves, Titus of All the Saints.

(sm)Ashville part 2


The sun sets just in time . . .


. . . lest it cast light upon the carnage to follow.


BV-CVX on the warpath. Doin a darn good job . . .


. . . although it looks like you mighta missed yer exit there, guy.


Being the sporting types that we are, we chanced a game of darts as well. Variety: Killa.


A New Work for darts, board, and winner, by winner JSpace.

(sm)Ashville part 1


I was not acquainted with the history of this town, but I guess structures were erected . . .


. . . according to clever vandals, in excess.


My meal contained both crawfish and alligator. A familial hot sauce added some kick.

Hotlanta


Steve and Preston wait to be seated for breakfast.
Background: death.


Bradford Cox makes suggestions (out loud) while Face reads descriptions (to herself).


Breakfast was real good. Does anyone know what this means?

How to Succeed


One critical element of success in any endeavour is proper and effective organization. Here I have arranged a group of small items at Cracker Barrel.


I invite the FZA to help test my system. "Please indicate the sweetest item," she said.


Done.

FSU


Post-show jam zone . . .


. . . was visited by a magical fairy.


She had a strange effect on the flora.

Red Stick City, LA


We traverse the Bayou.


Disrupted signage.


Another odd place to fix a guitar.


Misdirection.

Space City


Houston was hit hard by Hurricane Ike (not pictured). According to one local woman, "Nasa got fucked up."


Electricity puts the 'fizz' in the Fizzle.


We were unable to find a hotel room until 6:30 in the morning.

We Had a Little Problem and There was Nothing We Could Do


Jaime's in Austin. Don Bul has ordered a neckular VVVGASH on 9K to be performed by a henchman friend BV-CVX. She pleads for mercy.


Don Bul ruminates on it for a moment. Mood: calmly sinister.


Quarter: none taken. VVVGASH is delivered with precision as always by BV-CVX.


Later, back at our HQ Jaime's, Mike 'Da Doc' Bones receives instructions from Don Bul to send a messsage to the Austino Family.


Da Doc leaves a calling card. You've been warned.

D-Town


What's the point, really? It's like lipstick on a pig.


Now that's a light, pal.

Missouri redux


Saint Louis still life.


Things can go wrong with guitars, 5-star.


Chris will absolutely destroy you.


We did well on 'merch' and it all went down right here at this table.

Missouri State, home of non-Kansas (State) city Kansas City, Missouri


5-Star General Crook tints our chariot, obscuring precious cargo from enemy eyes.


Old habits are hard to break.


New habits form easily. Particularly when the machine is free (in two senses).


DJ Scribbleshanks was in attendance on the night.


His pal has his back, no doubt.
