TX

Our little Texas excursion has turned out at least as bizarre as we’d anticipated. We opened it with 2 penny pint night at Bash Riprock’s in Lubbock, where we struggled to play above the sound of Texas Tech undergrads vomiting. Nice kids, really. The next day a bearing went out on a trailer wheel fifty miles out of Austin. We pulled over and promptly telephoned our mechanic friend in San Marcos, who helped us out last time we broke down fifty miles out of Austin. He was receptive to our plight, if amused at our ineptitude with vehicle maintenance. We transferred our gear to the back of the van and had AAA haul the trailer to San Marcos while we hightailed it to the gig at MoHawk. We sat out a local band who didn’t know when to stop and finally took the stage after 1pm. Garnet had a few too many and ended up puking out of the passenger window of the van all the way back to the hotel room.
