This whole experience was pretty amazing.
Never realized how huge Islands are in the USA.
1,000+ crowds at some of these gigs. Mad.

We ended up selling hundreds of albums and shirts.
Met loads of great people.
Fun times!!.|..|

Tour diary!

Tour diary!

We're all far too illiterate/lazy for that, but an abridged version would include being chased for miles by cops without realizing it, autographing teenage breasts, sharing motel rooms with on-the-run felons, having weird kids already know all the words to Crayonsmith songs, jamming with Islands onstage and getting in a car crash with the singer from Trail of Dead.

Now I DEFINATELY want to read the tour diary!
