"Norlins"

hey guys!

Blain here, hope everyone is doing as awesome as I am right now! (Not even to speak of the rest of us.) We are on ouor way home for New Orleans. . .wow, what a town! It was the first time we were able to get some BAD ASS cajun food, and the first time we have been able to walk around that amazing town! The architecture is out of this world, the art is amazing, there is a new band to be seen at EVERY bar you walk by/ It a town that is amazing enough to have an entire Dave Matthews album written about it, and may end up having a Post Script album written about it as well.

We got a crazy suprise upon our arrival as well! Our good friend Rob Coleman from Red Moon (an awesome band, check them out). and his girlfriend had flown down to New Orleans to go on vacation and come see us play! Needless to say, it was a very pleasant surprise to see a familiar face in such an unfamiliar town. Unfortunately Traffic was so bad in Gulf Shores duee to everyone leaving for home that we were held back and unable to make our in-store show at the Louisiana Music Factory, BUT! We did end up walking around in there and checking out their selection of bad ass local New Orleans Music. (Best Jazz Selection EVERY!!)

Rob and his girlfriend were also nice enough to show us around town and take us to an AMAZING retaurant that's name escapes me, but the food was OUT OF THIS WORLD! Alligator sausage, Jumbalya, Gumbo, all the Cajun food you could ever hope for or want. Not only that, but, the nostalgia of visiting and playing in the Birth place of Jazz was again was overwhelming! Plus, a friend of ours named Jeff, from the last time we came down here showed up at the bar sporting a sexy ass Post Script shirt! Kudos to Jeff for his good fashion sense! HA!

So over all, today was a great day! We had a few drinks with some old New Orleans friends, a couple unexpected friends from back home, Andy got a couple cool Latin CD's and a Conga lesson from Rob, and we played a really good show at The Banks Street Bar. (Even though we missed out on our in-store at the Louisiana music Factory.) We definitely played better at this show then at any show prior. Things are going well, and we can only hope that they will continue to get better! Anyway, Have a Great day everyone, I will keep you posted on all our upcoming adventures and so forth! Make sure to tell your friends and family to sign up and follow this blog, and us along our adventures in the south and on the East Coast! Talk to you all soon!

~Peace, Love, and Good Vibrations~
