Sunshine, Marque, Glasshouse, GST, and Civic Auditorium

Hello Everybody,

Sorry i've fallen way behind on my blogs :o( life has been busy on the road, and the internet on the bus is really annoying. I typed out one really nice blog and just as I hit 'submit' it pooped out on me and I lost the whole thing. So, now that I have some time I thought i'd try again :o)

The Sunshine Theater was awesome. Albuquerque was a lot of fun! As soon as I got there, Alex and I went for food... and guess what!?! We found GREEK FOOD!!! YAY, haha. I'm greek and have been craving some greek food (being that mama always cooked it) and finally I was able to have some. The lady we met inside the restaurant wasso sweet to us. She hooked us up with some delicious food and diet coke. The show was awesome! I really thought we nailed ALTNOY... it felt really good at least. haha. The line was SOOOO long! I dont think i've seen a line that long before! It wrapped around the building several times, and I took some pictures to remember that. It was sweet.

The next day we were off to Arizona. We landed in Tempe where I again ate some Greek food at "My Big Fat Greek Restaurant" in Tempe. I have to say - it was pretty good! I had a traditional Greek Salad with lots of feta and olives... yummmmm. We had a day off so Alex and I ventured around the town a little. We climbed this hill with a big A on it (it stood for Arizona State University or something) and took some pics at the top. Then we went and played some tennis for a bit at another hotel :o) our hotel didnt have any courts so we became friends with the desk people at another one and they let us play, haha. The next day we had the show. I mingled around the kind folks in line in the morning and a sweet lady bought me antibiotics for my infected finger! Her husband was a doctor and so she was able to help me out. That was SO sweet of her... thank you lovely lady :o) I love playing the Marque, its so fun in there. Its a great layout, just one huge standing room with a good sound system. The show was WAY fun and the crowd was awesome! We had a great set. Also, that night the Hornacek family was in the house!! It was so great to chat with them and hang a bit! I loved getting to know you all too! It's so much fun to talk to you all and Thank you for an unforgettable night!

The Glasshouse - I HAD A BLAST!!! Maybe it was a combination of beautiful weather and being well rested, but I thought I played a GREAT show! I was so in the zone at one point, I remember thinking to myself "I can't believe this is my life!" The crowed was awesome too, you were all so full of energy. I think my favorite tune was ALTNOY again!!! haha. Crush was a lot of fun too, it was grooving really well :o) It was fun to mingle with the crowd again, and sorry to everyone I missed! I really really hope to meet you at a show again sometime soon.

After Cali we made our way to Reno where we played the Grand Sierra Theatre. What a venue this was! It was so beautiful. It had an awesome back drop (behind us on stage) and also the seating was neat. There was the floor up front and then all these booths and tables behind. The lights were incredible too! The lighting guy was really on top of his game and I thought he did a great job. The energy was unbelievable too! The whole place got SOOO loud, it was awesome! My Favorite tune this night was Waiting for Yesterday, gosh, I really love playing that tune. Hahaha.

That night after our show in Reno we made our way to Idaho, and landed in the town of Idaho Falls. We had another day off so I decided to go to the mall with Lupe, Mike, and Rick to shop. We went to the store 'Buckle' - I had never been to one before. I found the hottest pair of jeans there and now I cant take them off! hahaha, they are so sweet. Anyway, Lupe kept throwing clothes at me to try on, it was so much fun. She's got a good eye for fashion!

The next day we loaded into the Civic Auditorium. After soundcheck at 3 I went to subway for some food (I got the spicy italian on herbs and cheese bread - toasted) and it was so good. Then I got back to the auditorium and mingled for a bit with some folks in line. I met so many cool people there. It was awesome. We took a bunch of pictures and hung out. The show that night was awesome. What a beautiful crowd! There were so many of you there, and I hope you had a blast... I did :o) You were all so kind and sincere, thank you thank you thank you. After the show I went to the after party for a bit and ate some pizza and talked with some more people before getting on the bus to go to bed again. It was a fun time, and cant wait to meet more of you at the next one!

If anyone has any pics of these shows will you tag them or post them? You guys rock, I think you are the best friends anyone could ever want!!! THANK YOU! XOXOXO

Eli
