April 26th - Dallas, TX @ The Max
Texas! Finally! This venue was HUGE! Easily a 1100 cap room illegally. Today, our tour package and the Oceano/Diskreet package got smushed together. Overall the show was fun as fuck. The backstage area was gigantic! Jimmy Buffet played there the night before us. Every band was solid. Diskreet really surprised me and I was blown away. That band rules. All the dudes in Oceano are awesome and their...
April 25th - Wichita, KS @ Eagles Lodge
Fuck Yes Kansas Rules!. We’ve been looking forward to this show and it was totally worth the wait. We showed up and Loaded out immediately. Ryan showed up with our masters and we were really excited about listening to the final product. Our set ended up being taped and it was nutty. Kansas has always been good to us and again it didnt let us down. I showed Ryan our masters and he was stoked...
April 24th - Cheyenne, WY @ Old Community House
We started this day off very well. We went to chipotle and had a feast. Shane and I walked over to the mall and bullshitted for about 10 minutes until ryan called him and said we have to go because they put 57 sauce on Liferuiners van. We hightailed it outta there and headed to the show. We showed up and started leading out. The people who worked there told us that we had to sell the merch...
April 23rd - Pocatello, ID @ The Eagles Lodge
Idaho treated us well last time and it did again this time. We rolled up to the venue and loaded in. Unfortunately there were really awkward stairs waiting for us! After we got our shit upstairs, Shane and I Ventured over the train tracks to get chinese food. Who thought that idaho would have great chinese food? It was by far the best chinese of tour. We walked back and the show had already...
April 22nd - Great Falls, MT @ Times Square
Today was the most random day of them all. I never thought that Montana would draw alot of kids. It did and the show was sweet. The promoter was super cool. He got us alot of food that wasnt pizza so i was more than content. The show over all was awesome. All the kids were into it so we had a great time. Other than that, nothing crazy happened today. We got food with Dan after the show and headed...
April 21st - Vancouver, WA @ Moxies Soda Shop
Today started off well, once we left Jon’s, we stopped off at Dennys for breakfast. French Toast Slams are fucking amazing. Pancake puppies are not! After getting near the venue, we found out through friends that we were in the new Revolver. We picked up two copies and headed to Ben & Jerry’s. Luckily for us, it was free cone day. We Frank, Shane, Ed, and I got free ice cream while...

April 19th - Stockton, CA @ Stockton Theatre
Today’s our last day with suffokate =[. Im really bummed about that. Also Today was my first day with a really bad stomach virus =[. We went to Walmart and we all picked up some party streamers and confetti poppers. The venue was gigantic and it reminded me of a smaller Nokia Theater. The 2 locals weren’t bad. I definitely dug them. There was an edge rapper which was pretty cool. He...
April 18th - Bakersfield, CA @ Jerry's Pizza
Whew Today was a doosy. Once we woke up in the parking lot, we called around to a couple repair shops in palmdale. Luckily we found a place called ‘An Honest Auto Shop’. We got our shit towed there. We found out it was a Fuel Pump and we obviously had to get it fixed. Since we were all starving by then, we walked about a half mile to a place called Primo Burger. I must say, it was...
