Nashvegas baby!!!!

We have returned from our nashvegas trip just a few days ago, and I must say this was the best trip there we have ever had as a band. Im sure it helps to be hanging with Mr. Baldwin, and be playing for the largest crowd we have played for in nashville. We played at a place called Chitown, where the hospitality was great and they made us feel right at home. (huge thanks to wade for treating us so well) God really had His hands in this trip, I do know that He has some big things in store for us. I'm just excited to be along for this ride. Something that was kind of unreal was Stephen Baldwin introduced us and then came up in our set and told everyone to buy merch, I was just thinking..is this really happening? God sure does have a great sense of humor lol. It was a good time, some friends came out to see us play which is always fun and I made some new friends as well.(thanks vince, yogi, anita, jeff, bridget, and my new friend kristen) To me meeting new people is one of the perks of touring, it just allows you to meet so many new and interesting people out there. Well good things are on the way, I think we are returning to nashvegas in a month to do more showcasing hope to see you all again soon. Remember to always stand up for what you believe in no matter where you are. Also dont forget to VOTE!!!!!!!! proverbs 3:5-8

No sleep till....Illinois???

Well it was a crazy few day outing as we left oklahoma on thursday morning to head to Kansas City area to play a show with our great friends Unified Front. It was a fun show and it was good to see them boys again. We left straight after the show to drive over night to Greenville, SC and I wont say much about this show except I couldve lived without it. We slept 3 hours in our hotel that friday night to wake around 3am eastern time to drive to Fairfield, Illinois to play Godstock. That festival, I must say, was the best festival we have played in a long time. Great food, amazing hospitality and an all around great time. We got to hang out with some old friends at the show, holland and jonah 33 as well as make new friends such as number one gun and last october(im sure you will be hearing more of this band to come). Im not sure we played well at the festival due to lack of sleep, but it was fun none the less. Its always fun to play in front of people that have never seen you live, so Im hoping we didnt let anyone but if we did I'm sorry blame eddie....lol. So finally saturday night we got to sleep in a hotel for more than 3 hours and got to sleep till check out which was GREAT!!! So here we are back home with some time off which we will be using to work on new material. Our next show isnt until the 23rd of this month, but that one is gonna be a great one. Its gonna be in nashvegas at the gibson showcase(?) for the Livin It after party...so those of you in nashvegas come on out and have a grand ol time with us. Well thats it for now, remember low carb is the way and the forgotten dream...who?

South Dakota....burning oil?

So here I am once again on this road journal to tell you about a great time we had at lifelight festival. We had never been to south dakota before but was welcomed with fans singing along to our songs and even some yelling out for us to play down. Crazy times I tell you, just to go to a state you have never been before and have people singing along to your songs is just incrediable. On our way up there our van started burning oil faster than a band sparks an ego over nothing.(sorry had to say that) So our trip was cut short as we drove back the next day to put our van in the shop once again. We have a string of shows coming up this week, then its back home to slave away at writing new material. For those of you who are curious as to what is going on with us, just know that God is moving and huge things are happening. By now Im sure you know that the actor Stephen Baldwin(thanks to eddie dropping all those names...btw eddie you wanna pick up those names you just dropped..ohhhhh FACE!!!!) is a fan ours. He is a super cool guy and it was an honor to have met him. He has a ministry called Livin it(www.livinit.org) check it out, its bmx and skate boarding stuff its pretty tight. Just keep us in your prayers and we hope to see you all very soon. If you are in the okc area come out to our show this wed at southern hills baptist..its a free show and its going to be a good one. And I just wanna leave you with this, being in a band is 30% on stage and 70% off stage..be the same person you are no matter what. "Patience is a test, but the reward is great trust in Him and everything little thing will be ok"
