Night 0, Steves Bday at Jimi D's

Hello all,
Welcome to another rendition of the Picks. You may or may not know, but Andrew's Ave. is currently on our Spring Tour around the country and so far it has been a mix of debauchery, music, and tears.

April 30 was Stevey's birthday and we celebrated the evening with friends and family at Jimi D's. The acoustics in the venue created a "panning" effect as our music was bounced around the many walls and into the patrons ears. Think loud. Almost too loud. As blood trickled out of my ruptured cochlea we took a set break and took numerous shots of vodka and other clear liquids such as water. Played another set and made our teary goodbyes and started thinking about the long trip ahead. In tours past, we get incredibly confrontational and angry at eachother by day 3, so a full month of this is gonna be awesome. As Steve drove his car out of the lot at a very brisk birthday pace (just kidding his brother David was forming sentences and driving like a champ that night), we gave him a final toast for the evening.

The next day I woke up fully energized and very excited for the day ahead. Bird and I went on a little venture to the music shop and many goodwills around town to get some jorts for the warmer states. "Jorts" isnt quite accurate now that I think of it because that makes it seem like they are hip and loose. Daisy dukes would be a better description of the shorts because 94% of my leg is exposed to the world. As usual Im kidding, but we did get some bomb shorts so come out and see them.

Packing the van was quite the task and our van is the biggest thing on the road at all times. Theres no better feeling than pulling up to a smart car and realizing:

1. How ridiculous cars those cars are
2. How our van could total that vehicle by looking at it
3. How many smart cars could fit in our van
4. How no one should ever get a smart car
5. How many people think they are offsetting our gas guzzling smoke pluming van

Now im all worked up about smart cars.
Goodbye
-Boom

Blog To Commence March 31st

Thanks for checking out the blog. Our west coast tour runs from March 31-May 1 and we will be constantly updating the blog throughout our trip. I would love to make promises about how often we will be updating the blog, but more than likely we will do it at random.

Later,
Aaron E.
