Started Up Huustlin...

Ricky just texted me; apparently, the Boston date of our upcoming tour with Secondhand Serenade and Cute Is What We Aim For has sold out. This tour is going to be jam-packed with new experiences and I'm super excited... and yes, a lil' nervous. Thanks for the good news Ricky and thanks for a ridiculous night at my Provi homecoming. The Provi-squad was in full effect and shit got noodles... quick.

The crew we have now on the road is meshing very well, Shane Haase joins us November 3, and what a day it will be. Shane is like a big brother I never had the chance to really get to know so him coming out is huge for me. Morale is high!!!

Meet our new Tour Manager, Shane Fucking Haase.

This last tour was nothing special for our wallets or egos; however, I gained a lot of friends and because of that, I'm so glad we took it. The Lives of Famous Men, The Urgency, and A Cursive Memory are going to be missed for sure, and of course Brighten it was great to tour with them again. It was hard to say goodbye to Auggie, Tyler, and Toad because I never meshed better with any group of dudes I met on the road. Good times are ahead of us though when I trek North to their little planet they call "Vermont." Stay up brothers!

I haven't eaten meat since the 18th, I haven't eaten animals products of any kind since the 20th. This makes me 10 days vegan and I'm going strong. thanks to anybody that has supported me because while I find it extremely challenging (see how much of your favorite snacks contain animal) I consider it worth it. I feel better than I ever have really, and it's nice to not feel disgusting after each meal. Shane is also vegan so it'll make this next tour a little easier to have a teammate. I'm trying not to fall in the slump of salad and french fries at every restaurant, but it's going to take some creativity. IF YOU PLAN ON COMING TO ONE OF OUR DATES BRING ME THINGS TO EAT!!!

Ended Up Bawlin'
BAM

ps. I'll put up another round of tour pics later, I need to find my wire.
