Valentines Day...

Finally, we get outta Hartford and arrive in Boston, MA. Its -10 degrees here, but it would be colder if the sun wasn't out. Paul our guy from Arista picks us up and we do an int. and two acoustic songs at radio WAAF. We met two guys from Blindside who are in also for an interview, they seem like cool guys and have just joined the tour. After that we go get Boston clam chowder from a place called Legal Seafood, its one of those things you have to do when yr here. We end up ordering shitloads of seafood and eat it all. Tonights gig is so early, we're on at 6:45pm, apparently the club we're playing turns into some doof doof dance party full of valentines rejects. Show goes well, even though Phil walks onstage for Comfort Me without his guitar. I didn't see Blindside, but Tom comes back to the bus raving about them, he said they've got that hot rockin Swedish thang goin on, I'll have to check 'em out tomorrow. Paul from Arista grabs us and we go to a Radio party in town for a signing and interview. It ends up being a pretty funny party and we go back to the bus, I ring my girlie, then sleep. Clifton Park tomorrow.........where the fuk is that? x Karl
