Two days in a van, day two By Michael Tension
"Shit I'm getting low on cash."
This statement has already been made by two band mates this morning.
Haven't even
made Calgary yet. The Burkulator has gone missing along with the
gas money he had agreed to subsidize. Morale is still in the high
end of the spectrum. Still, this isn't looking good for the second
day.
Should have brought more cds as the selection left in the van
from the last trip was stale then.
Slept in the van last night on the side of the highway. I don't
own a sleeping bag. I used my leather jacket. I get off on this
shit. It makes for an intense show. Desperation is as much a fuel
for rock as alcohol is for sleep on a living room floor.
This will not become the complaint department. This is better
than anything a Victorian based life has to offer me. Looking
forward to the next stage. Trying not to think about the drive
home from Saskatoon.
