The Rest of the November 2009 Tour

Basically I stopped writing about this tour, but there was only 2 days left of it, so there wasn't much. Here's a small recap of those 2 days.

We drive down to San Diego and get to the pub we're playing. They're really anal about keeping the underage members of our band from coming inside, even when loading gear they are making sure that they're not lingering. Pricks. Travis and Ryan had shown up to the show, but they thought that the show was seriously at 8pm, so they had been there for awhile. All the shows on myspace say 8pm as a default, and bar shows usually don't start until 9-10ish. They were already pretty drunk and had brought some friends. The Bombpops played, and they were really good. We played, and my friends and their friends were super drunk and going crazy. Travis afterwards made everyone buy a ton of merch. Ryan bought 4 shirts. One of the girls that they brought flashed her tits to the band to try to get free merch, but I was inside at the merch table and didn't see it. She just came in later drunk and demanded that I give her a free shirt because she showed her tits to Brendan and John. I didn't give her anything. She also flashed her ass to the whole band later on, but I looked away. They offered us a place to stay, but we went to Jen from the Bombpops place to crash instead. We watch some 50's mafia/romance movie thing and go to bed.

The next day we sit around and watch some TV and watch Evil Dead or Army of Darkness, I can't remember. I manage to completely wreck my computer by deleting the partition table, but I use some Linux magic to restore it. We played in Oceanside, and we hung out on the pier a little bit. The show we played was at this bar with saw dust covering the floors. Brendan has this awesome idea to Rick Roll the entire bar because they have one of those internet jukeboxes that can play any song, but the song never comes on and steals his money. The first guy that played was this super super SUPER wasted guy who played really sloppy acoustic guitar and really wanted to be Bob Dylan. We played, and I think it was fine. The band after us was this Orange County punkish band with a very charismatic lead singer who was kinda doing the whole Gwen Stefani/No Doubt thing. They were fun. We went back to Jen's place and I forget what we did, maybe just went to sleep. And then we drove home the next day.
