Poland

Saturday March 16th 1:08 am
HOORRAY POLAND!!! Against everyone expectations, Poland is great. They must have thought we were frigging bon jovi by the way we were treated. We got our entire rider (for those of you aren't hip with touring lingo, a rider is the list of stuff you want, that you send to promoters in hopes of having the food and beverages you want available upon arrival). Prior to today we have only received local shit beer, water, bread, mystery meat, and a bottle of bacardi. Today were walked into what felt like a little piece of heaven: cheetos, nachos, mountain dew, gatorade, all kinds of chocolate products, beef jerky, turkey, brogies (ravioli type things filled all kinds of yummy goodness), mcdonalds, vodka, jagermeister, budweiser, and Jack Daniels. I just wasted to strip naked and roll around in all of it. The day seemed to drag by, but it was probably because all I did is eat all afternoon and sit around feeling sick because chasing 20 chocolates with cheetos, nachos, and jagermeister is never a good idea. Then it was showtime. I have been on tour with chimaria for 46 days and today I heard my first chimaira pre show chant. The crowd was pumped, the stage was ready, and iron cobra had been struggling through his challenge to drink a entire bottle of jack daniels before the chimaira set was over (which he eventually completed and to my surpirse was in amazingly good shape). The show was great, All the security were skinheads which always makes you feel safe. There are usually about 3 photographers at these shows but today there was no less then 20. All of them in my way the whole show. But none the less the show went off without a hitch. The band did a lot of sick jump moves during the show and I even convinced Mark (singer of chimaira) to pour water on his pants and change the lyrics in one of their songs to "i pissed my pants." Things like that keep me entertained during the set. Tonight I will not be drinking anything but water. I am exhausted because I was awake all night last night gripping my pillow hoping we wouldnt die. The tour bus was all the place because we were on dirt roads all night and these european bus drivers are cunts. They swurve all over the fucking road breaking and accelerating as hard as possible. At one point the bus driver locked up the breaks so hard, that I was awoken because how far my underwear went my ass due to the distance I slid in my bunk. I am still jet lagged and I want to get caught up on my sleep because tomorrow is perth and then a day off in munich (hofbrahaus). Hope I can have some fun. ADIOS!!

Rained all day again!!!
