Cedar Rapids, IA - Show Day

Tuesday, May 10, 2005

Up early, gig is pretty small. Raining too. Again, no satellite on bus. While standing outside the bus, a few of us hear what sounds like a jackhammer coming down the street. We look and it's a car driving at 35mph with no front wheel. The guys stops at the light, looks around then starts running away from the car, as people are chasing him, saying he hit another car 2 blocks away. Cops arrive, never find out if they got the guy or not. It's crazy out here in the Midwest.

Later in the day find a killer magazine store across from the gig, I think everyone on the crew went in and bought stuff...

Gig goes well. Loadout and more reading...
