april
we had two shows over the weekend, at soupies in cincinnati on friday, and at Mcguffy’s in dayton on saturday. here’s trav and i at soupies, me in a xavier shirt. i don’t have many photos from this show Thanks to dan, brittaney, jessica, matthew, colleen, colleen, jenn and lissa for taking photos.


photo of heads. not only was it pretty packed, but the crowd was really into it both nights. we were spoiled.
bluf and premium opened the night, two really great bands also from cincy. i confess i was having dinner during bluf’s set–not much of a confession since they called me on it. i will catch you next time guys..so sorry. gotta eat. i always try and watch at least some of the other band(s), but sometimes i am eating or warming up and i just can’t. anyway, i did see a lot of premium’s set, and it quite rocked.

outside after the show, trav and i took turns suiting up in hockey goalie pads. they belong to dave “hurricane” marlin, a friend of ours and goalie for the dayton bombers.
not much else to tell from friday i guess. lots of xavier students, lots of jfk show regulars, and lots of rock.

Here is travis talking on the phone by a cigarette machine at McGuffy’s in dayton on saturday. i quit smoking by the way. i don’t know if i already mentioned that.

a shot i took of Strip the Image, one of the bands that played on saturday. catch Strip the Image wednesday nights at Soupies.
also performing was Smalltown Sleeper, old friends of ours. i took photos of them too but none of them turned out very well. I hadn’t seen those guys in a long long time. i dig the new line-up. troy is such a good songwriter.
the sticker is so funny.
drew with the TN crazies.

who is butterfly jones? the world may never know.

the occasional grain is cool. this grain came from a scanner in a library in a college in michigan.
and that was our weekend. i guess this wasn’t much of a journal. more like a photo album. i’ve thought of renaming this section “scrapbook” but that doesn’t sound as official and cool as journal.
see some of you this weekend at the mad frog. old school.
i hope you’re having a good week!
