Sorry again its been a while since I’ve written.

What an eventful weekend!

Again, officially, Greg and I no longer have day jobs-yay! We got the bus, which is why I’ve been so busy. Sunday Greg and I did some heavy duty work trying to get all the seats out of it. I don’t know how they installed them in the first place, but it took us a while. I was in the van and Greg was under the van and we both had to loosen the bolts at the same time to get them off. What a pain! And those shuttle riders were messy people too! Found a barrage of candy wrappers, plane tickets, news papers dated from 1999 and clothes hangers (!?!) under the seats. Then we snuck behind our building and dumped all of them by the trash ( sorry to our neighbors and the sanitation department people, but we had no other choice!). Soon after we went to Home Depot and bought paint. The inside of it is now a cool shade of sunflower yellow/peach on the sides, and a nice olive/moss on the back. It looks super cool and I think that those walls are gonna keep us sane 6 months from now. Gray is way too depressing. I also spray painted our windows black from the inside so no one can peek in. Its pretty sweet. You also may call it dope,rad,pimpin,kick ass, all of the above. Im hoping that once our bass player Steve gets into town him and I can draw murals on the inside of the bus when were bored. (Steven Bossler Art )

The downside is the air conditioning which worked when we test drove it works no more. Now its at the National Bus Company so they can figure out whats wrong with it. Keep your fingers crossed that its nothing serious because it sucks going on the road broke. To top it all off, my jeep has been overheating the past 2 days…car problems come in pairs. Oh well.

We just came back from an early morning excursion. One of our pups Sam is getting spayed today. I feel bad for her, but we can’t be coming back from tour to take care of a litter of puppies. Sorry Sam. After we dropped her off and I stepped in dog poo, we went and rented a storage unit. We have bins upon bins of vinyl records, tons of them really, which of course would not be practical to take on the road. So we got a storage unit to store some extra musical things. Now we are at the studio and combining our efforts on numerous computers to make cds. All in all, I think we have plenty of time to get ready for the road. Haven’t really started packing yet, but we sold all of our stuff when we moved from FL so there really isn’t much. I am however, getting rid of alot of my clothes. So if any of you ladies out there want some free shwag, please let me know. Otherwise, its going to GoodWill.

We got a chance to see our good friend Kim Manning last night. She is a P-Funk Allstar. She’s been in George Clinton’s band for 10 years or so and they were in town last night playing at the Masquerade. All I can say is I admire her tolerance and he ability to remain calm and normal around all the crazyness that surrounds that band. Their fans are fun-addicts. Seriously. But it was good to sit and chat with her and see their tour bus. One day, we’ll have one of those :] I swear.

Off to doing more work for the tour now. Posters should be here today and stickers too. Cd’s I think get here tomorrow. Shirts are en-route.Can’t believe it-5 days!

love you guys, see you soon I hope!

Crazy,

Geri
