Hey everyone,

The last time we spoke, I was writing from the venue in Detroit. After we played we ended up at a house with three big dogs including a saint Bernard.

The next morning, we went for a drive to look at the abandoned buildings. The best one we found was a old train station. The photo of all us in front a big building is the abandoned train station.

We then drove to Columbus Ohio and met up with the guys from Pink Reason. It was a fun show. Before the show we went to a Mexican bar and drank $3 margaritas.

The venue, The Ace Of Cups, had a cool sign with our name in it. The photo of the sign is that sign

From Columbus we drove to Cleveland. On the way we stopped at this huge outlet shipping centre that had a mini train and railway tracks. Just near the shopping centre was a shed with Lodi station painted on it. I took a photo of it because of the Credence Clearwater Revival song called “Lodi.”

We were in Cleveland from Thursday to early Sunday. We played Horrible Fest twice. Mr California also played on a roof as part of horrible fest. That's the photo of the man on the roof.

Horrible Fest also had a hot tub set up at the back of the venue which I got in before we played. It was a relaxing way to get ready to play. The photo of me in the hot tub shows me having a good time.

It's Sunday night and I am in Rochester, Upstate New York for our gig at the Bug Bar. Tomorrow we head to Boston to play Obrien's then. We will be in NYC on Tuesday where we play Death by Audio.

It's been great seeing all the different cities of America and the personalities they have. It's also been a lot of fun meeting people who are into our music.

I hope you enjoy the photos. I think they are entertaining.

Love Marcus
