the very hush hush (part three)

time to conclude this little number.

after our few days off in regina, we headed back on the road to finish up the last few dates of the tour. the first night was in saskatoon. the lineup that night was reallly sick, so we were definetly stoked to be there. unfortuantly, the drive to saskatoon from regina takes about three weeks. i don't know why it feels like it takes forever, but my word. the longest, boringst trip. either way, we showed up, and called our boi Jimmy. he gave us a floor to sleep on, and a sweet little x-men video, with a lot of swearing in it, to watch. the show was great that night. we got to see Means play one of their first shows with Tyler on bass. it was suppper good, and we danced and had a great time. i also got to see Jumo, who is a reader of this blog. so a big shout out to him for coming and rocking out with us.

so the next morning it was off to swift current, home of my favourite person in the whole world: Bobbykins! we cruised into town, and were hanging out at mcdonalds, when this van full of a bunch of our friends shows up. we cruised around for a bit, and then headed to the venue. the "lyric theatre" was definetly the most interesting venue we played in on this tour. there's like a disco floor, and the stage has like an emptied moat around it. it was alot of fun. we dedicated the set, and every song individually to bob, who came and shreaded his lungs for a song with us. it was a great time. after the show we had a great time talking at BPs. i also witnessed Drew consume his first pint. he hadn't ate anything the whole day, so he went from being talkative to...very talkative. but it was all good. there were alot of sweet people in swift, and lots of encouraging words were said. so many thanks to all our friends in swift.

after swift was our last show of the tour, in moose jaw. it was great going back and having such a good turnout. we chilled with our palz in Go Jeff!!!, who were definetly one of my favourite bands to watch. they will make you dance, and possibly intoxicate you, just with their music. it was a good night too. and it was nice to be back in regina that night.

anyways, with tour over, we've had lots of time to hang out, and go swimming. it's been REALLY hot lately, so we've spent alot of time in our friends pool. i think we're making a music video out of all the fun underwater videos we've taken. i'll post some fun pictures someday.

hope you're all doing well! take care.

Jamison.
