Part 2 sorry for the delay!

Tuesday July 6th, 2010 - A corn field in Indiana

The blisters on my hands are finally making some progress trying to heal after spending my first few days back in the states practicing for more than 15 hours each day. I had a wirl wind of meetings and interviews with management and Sahir from Matsers of Maple. Took off soon after to do an autograph signing at the first Warped show before I had even played with the band. True story. But, I think my focus paid off since the first show went awesome. The crowd was pumped and everyone was happy that we played so well together. The guys are just like family - we all get along great. It’s one of those situations where you go from not knowing someone to being best friends in an hour. We’ve now played 9 shows, which has gone by in the blink of an eye, and today will be our 10th. Warped Tour is such a monster of a production. There are 83 bands playing every single day, more tents and booths than any one person can take in one day. The line for the shower takes more than an hour which makes it seem a little pointless when you get out and it’s so humid that you’re instantly sweaty again. But, all in all, Warped Tour is turning out to be a great experience. I happy to be playing drums and stoked that I’m surrounded with such good people.
