Tour Diaries: Denver to Dallas

the drive from salt lake to denver is a long and winding road of yellow fields.

arrived in denver around 4.

the ogden was one of the first venues i ever saw a band play at.

every time i come to denver i like it more and more.

my dad came to see the show. it was so good to see him. its weird, the older i get the more i really miss being close to my family. it makes sense why everyone seems to be moving back home. there is something completely comforting about being within driving distance of your immediate family.

the denver show went really well. melissa and nick came to the show, as well as her brother and his girlfriend.

i can't believe its been ten years since melissa and i first met. i can't believe i've actually managed to keep a friendship for that long.

we went out afterwards and met everyone at gaboars, this little bar close to the venue. it was nice to hang out with old friends and i left denver in high spirits.

yesterday we drove 13 hours to dallas. the boys are road warriors.

arch ate 10000 hamburgers. and a hot dog. i ate vitamins, apples, nuts and toast.

when we arrived at the comfort inn, there was a law and order marathon on USA, and the shower had amazing water pressure.

its funny what really starts mattering on tour.

here's some photos.
