serve the serpents
this picture was taken in syracuse after our show there. we needed to send the booking agent for our australian tour a "press" photo. here goes one that was snapped. my personal favorite. we're about 10 days into a 41 day u.s. tour. currently we are roomed at a super 8 (our hotel of choice, strictly because of some discount card we get). today we played minneapolis,minn. the show was fantastic. before the gig we went to willie's american guitars in st. paul. this is easily the coolest guitar store i've ever been in, in my life. (www.williesguitars.com) i found the guitar head that i've been on the prowl for, for a great price...a 1986 marshall jcm800 2203, 100 watt, in fantastic condition.
along with that purchase, bean got 2 new pedals and an orange guitar cabinet. i felt like i was a little kid again..the only feeling i could compare it to was being 8 years old and getting my first pair of air jordans..the air jordan 8 in 1993, black and aqua. i was so excited to own those that i slept in bed with them. when they were re-released this past year i acquired 3 pairs for nostalgia exclusively. the shows collectively have been great. it's refreshing for blacklisted to finally be able to play material that we can all 100% get behind. not to say that older blacklisted has less meaning or is not important...but it's just a totally recharged emotion. a new feeling. i've been road doggin/giggin/hangin with bl since day 2. and this is something that's just exciting to be a part of. chemistry, physics, biology, all that shit. that's all i can really say. if you haven't, please pick up heavier than heaven, lonelier than god. www.myspace.com/blacklisted for tour dates. our cds are available at record stores/best buy/hot topic..whatever.
thanks for reading. sorry for the lack of updates. i just got a new computer but it's at my mom's office. i will be posting much more when i get that. black macbook. stoked.
