I'm back! We didn't have Internet for a while and had to sort out all the pictures so now I am back with all the stories and stuff that happened to us.

A picture from first (unofficial) show in USA. Maryville, TN
As all of you know, we had a show in Jacksonville on Thursday and where in Maryville the day before (to get from Maryville to Jacksonville is about 10 hours of nonstop driving). Our problem was that our jewel boxes and CDs where sent to the right address but the wrong city, to Tullahoma which is 3 hours from Maryville. That is why we had to wake up on Thursday morning 1 AM to drive to Tullahoma’s UPS Ground Service Station and wait for the guys to unload 7500 Packages and to find our CDs. The problem was it could be in the first or the last trailer of 8 trailers they had to unload (and those where big trailers). Fortunately it was not the last one, but not the first one either. We where waiting 2,5 hours for them to find the 14 boxes.

The Guys from the UPS Ground Service .. about 6:30 in the morning
We left Tullahoma around 7 AM and left to Jacksonville. On the way to Jacksonville we
assembled 1700 CDs and it took us 8 hours to do it.

We agreed with the Supertones to come around 4 PM but our car was overheating because of the hot Florida weather so we had to drive slowly and came around 6 PM. After a quick sound check, some food and setting up the merch table, it was our time to play. We started playing and some of the crowd was just standing, some where jumping in the back, some where listening (what else to expect form a crowd that never heard us), but after the show a lot of people told us that we where GREAT so I guess that people liked us.

So after almost 24 hours awake and on the road, we where totally exhausted. The promoter of the concert, Tony, invited us to his house to sleep over. He had a pool and a HOT TUB. That was a great way to close the day .

The hot tub actually changes lights from red all to over to green..
The next day we where hanging out at Tony’s, going to a shopping mall with a BOAT and HUNTING ALLIGATORS!!! Yes, that is true… he lives on a river and there are some gators swimming around in the uninhabited part of the river.

Last I have to report is that yesterday we where in a Water Park in Orlando called Wet N Wild. It was a lot of WET and a lot of WILD fun. My neck and all my muscles hurt…
