GS Mega POOP

Well, it seems a war has been started between us and our good friends GS Megaphone... Wait I am getting ahead of myself a little. Here is the story.

As we came out of second show in Indiana. We realized that our van smelled really bad. Being four smelly guys we thought nothing of it and just sprayed the old van down with air frebreeze (that is good stuff). However, this time the smell just got worse. Even after cleaning out all the trash out of the van. We drove our 14 hour trip home in are smelly van and couldn't figure out what had caused it. On top that we were to tired to even worry about it when we got home so we just let the van sit. The van sat there for over a week while I was celebrating my anniversary in Vegas (had a great time and shopped a lot... You can spend an entire day shopping and eating in one hotel). So anyway, when I got back and went to print flyers for the Christmas show (DECEMBER 12TH SEE THE NEWS SECTION FOR DETAILS) the van stunk really really bad. So I decided I was going to clean the van top to bottom to find out what was causing the stink... When I looked under the front seat there they were, Not one but Two GS Mega stinky diapers. So there you have it. We got had by our friends and fell for it hookline and sinker, or should I say stinker. We are going to be touring with them early next year and they will get paid back... We promise you that...

Oh... It's only 14 hours we can make it...

We just got back from a trip out to Indiana It was a great trip we had a lot of fun and met a lot of cool people. However, I have still not got caught up from my lack of sleep. Since we are Radial Angel and we are dumb we decided to drive 14 hours straight to IN leaving at 1pm and arriving at 5:30 that next morning. Luckily God shined upon us and there was a nice lady there to let us check in early. Plus we got there right as breakfast was starting so we ate a great breakfast and went to sleep full. We then woke up around 3pm that next day went and set up and played a show. It was a cool show and a cool venue. After the show Jeremy and I went to try and see the matrix in a town about 20 miles away. We got to the mall and of course it was sold out for the rest of the night. (By the way... I saw the movie when we got back and it rocks! Go see it if you get a chance!)
The next day we had a show with our friends GS Megaphone, who we may be doing a tour with in January. Anyway, that was a fun show as well. We got to hang out with those guys and met a lot more cool people from IN. I have to say that every show we do in that state rocks. Anyway, like I said, we are Radial Angel so we decided to drive the rest of the way home that night after the show. After leaving the venue at 12pm we drove all night and got home around 9am the next day. So that was our trip to IN. It was great fun and really exhausting....

P.S. OUR ANNUAL CHRISTMAS SHOW IS ON THE 12TH OF DECEMBER. WIth us, 38TH Parallel and possibly Ben from GS megaphone doing acoustic stuff. It will also include Echo Flyer and another up and coming local band. All the money and toys collected go to charity so make sure you and your friends come out and support these great causes... keep checking the site for details or you can call our hotline for info 405.722.7587

That’s all
