Blog RevAMPed!

Hey everyone, welcome to our new tour blog! We'll be updating this from the road starting now!

We've been on the road for the past week with our friends Brightwood traveling through the CA/OR winter storms and enduring all the coldness these great states have to offer. Morale is high and we've been fortunate enough to spend some time at the Brightwood house outside of Portland, Oregon.  The guys have been extremely generous and we couldn't ask for a better band to tour with.

Unfortunately the early and unexpected winter storms have literally road blocked our route to a few of the tour's shows. After about 5 hours of driving time (on what should've been a 3-hour trip) and $100 on chains for our tires, we were turned away by CalTrans workers on the roads heading to Reno.  With our faithful drummer Mr. Jones at the helm, we humbly conceded to nature and decided to let the icy roads win for the night.

This evening's show (Seattle, WA) is unfortunately cancelled as well. Right now we're all sitting on our laptops at the BW residence, sending e-mails, updating tour info, and enjoying some behind the scenes footage of the Copeland DVD accompanying the latest record.

Nonetheless, everything is going very well. We're having a great time on the road and enjoying the perks of our brand new (2002) tour van.  Going to head out and enjoy the snow while I'm here.  See you on the road soon!
