PALM SPRINGS


Last month we went on a little tour through the southwest taking us to Austin for SXSW and back.


We borrowed a veggie oil converted shuttle bus from our home-bros in The Outline


All packed up and ready to go


20 minutes outside of LA we broke down in the middle of the 60 East. Stopped in the middle of a 5 lane highway. Check out the beginning of the traffic jam we caused. You know when you think to yourself "Who stops in the middle of a 5 lane highway?!?!" and you get all grumpy? Well, that was us! Highway patrol came and pushed us offa the highway.


AAA came out and couldn't fix it, we had to get towed back to LA.

Graham met us at the mechanic. Sorry we ruined your Sunday soccer game buddy.


My brother saved the day - met us with our friend Gabe's van. Within 20 minutes we were fully loaded up into a converted cargo van with no windows and we were off. We later realized we didn't have any registration on us. We were pushing it, but it looked like we were gonna make our daytime show at the Ace Hotel.


Yeah that didn't happen, we missed the show. Our buddy and desert resident Sean Wheeler made it out. Dressed all dapper in pink, he came with his family. Always great to see Sean. He showed us around town a bit.


Getting in the Desert mood


At least our pals Sleepy Sun were also playing in town that night.


We shared songs and "jammed." Some of us enjoyed an herbal infused soy milk


Rachel rippin' it


This night was actually better than the show we missed could have ever been


Goodnight
