Adventure #36: Summer Tour 2012 Cleveland, Ohio


The show in Cleveland was a big send-off cookout thrown by Brandon, one of Joshua's friends. He has a house out in the suburbs right next to the highway. Luckily we played outside, so the highway made it really easy to hear everything. There was a bonfire on which we roasted hot dogs and veggie dogs. And many many beers were consumed. Joshua and I spent a lot of time figuring out how to pack the van. This was a delicate process involving Joshua knocking over my drink repeatedly while I sang the Tetris song unhelpfully. This is Pen Pen nearly beating level 10 of Tetris.



The show was fun. I got to awkwardly test out some new material on a friendly crowd, and Joshua got to drunkenly cajole his friends into singing along with his songs. Consummate professionals, we are. Consummate professionals.

After the show, we crashed out at Andrea's place. You know when you see a picture of one of those meticulously designed apartments where everything is color co-ordinated and fits some sort of theme in a furniture catalog and think “damn, who actually goes to all that trouble to design their apartment?” Andrea does. That's who. Before we hit the road to Detroit (Rock City), Andrea gave me an anti-meat T-shirt which I will wear in the mountains to antagonize cattle farmers shortly before getting killed. This is Pen Pen protesting meat despite the fact that I'm pretty sure Penguins only eat animals and would die on a vegetarian diet. That's how hardcore he is.



This is a song I wrote one time. You should download it and share with your friends.
