Black Lips/Cerebral Ballzy Tour Diary 006: NO FUN ZONE

More madness from the Black Lips/Cerebral Ballzy tour, courtesy of the balls-out snapper Tod Seelie.

A quick little video I shot during the Black Lips set in San Francisco:

We pick up our extra merch and Stony the tour mouse from a friend who was holding them while we were in Canada.

Neumos has nice showers and free arcade games for the bands.

There were some mattresses in an alley in Seattle I was tempted to crash out on, until I noticed they had "Bedbugs" written on them.

The Knitting Factory in Boise, Idaho has the most out of control security I've seen in a long time. They put you in a headlock and drag you out for smiling during the show. They even went as far as to stiff the opening band too.

Cokeheads also suck.

We walk into a shop in a small town in Idaho, and are promptly greeted with: "You're either in a band, or you just got out of jail."

Cole and the Ballzy boys play some basketball before the show in Salt Lake City.

A local magazine interviews Cerebral Ballzy backstage.

Boyfriends: if you don't want to see your girl swooning over another guy, don't bring her to a Black Lips show. Just sayin'. The trend continues of girls getting on stage during the Black Lips set to either A) dance, B) make out with a band member, or C) both.
