it seems like months since chrisnotseefried and i posted on friday. i think i've gotten a total of 10 hours sleep over the past 3 days. oy. i'd do it all again in a second. . . but i'm completely insane, as you all know.

i'm glad everyone is making it home ok. erin hope to hear of your safe arrival soon. aimee and sue stopped into the store today at about noon to say goodbye. they are on their way home now. i'm fighting the urge to crawl under my desk to cry and/or sleep. maybe i could do both at the same time.

both shows were amazing but i thought the nj one was the best one i've seen. and my absolute favorite moment of the whole weekend was the Just a Dream singalong at the end. and the group hug that followed. (though hearing how loud we all sang on barb's tape the next day was a little embarrassing.)

the more i hear When You Arrive the more i love it. i think it's going to be one of my favorites. Gone is the perfect song to end with. . . "it's alright, it's alright, it's alright." and i have to say joe 90 owns "why don't we do it in the road". it's their song now.

it was so great to see everyone. chrisnotseefried is the best house guest and it was such a treat to actually have someone to talk to on one of my road trips. jill (beezer!), erin, barb, ryan, chris, aimee and sue - you guys are the best. i need you all to always be at every show i go to. 'k?

i got to witness aimee's first joe90 radio moment last night. (i think it was good for her. she had a cigarette afterwards.) and the dj was obviously a very intelligent guy - he referred to the joe90 guys as the nicest rock stars you'd ever want to meet. but then immediately upgraded them to the nicest people. and he's right - they are.

it was great to see Dave again and to meet his son Adam (who is just the greatest kid). and to see Linda (aka kathy's mom) and Kim Jones. and to meet Crystal, and Kelly (i hope i got the name right) from elizabeth, pa.

i always seem to be posting when i'm too tired to be coherent. what's up with that? i can't even begin to do the weekend justice. it really is all about joe 90. (or at least 90% about them.)

and i'd like to thank joe 90 for playing in my hometown so that i didn't have a 30 hour drive home the next day. that's more than cc ever did for me. they suck.

ok, i'm going under the desk now. only 6 more hours until i can go home and sleep.

Kristin & Friends~ Thanks for the kind words about Adam (not Duritz ;-) What a great experience Sun. was ! Are our boys REALLY going to play Fat City on Sat./26th ???? My band is not booked that night and it would be GREAT if it's really true. A big HELLO to all the Mass. people and everyone I met at Club Laga. Joe90 is lucky to have such devoted fans. Hope to see y'all soon..... Dave

dave - joe 90 will indeed be playing nick's fat city on feb. 26th with the buzz poets. there are 2 shows - the one at 6pm is all ages and the one at 10pm is 21+. isn't pittsburgh just the greatest place to live? so i guess i'll be seeing you there. as well as jessica and brittany. anyone else?

and i also want to clarify that the Just a Dream singalong was at the end of the nj show, not the end of the weekend.

i need sleep.

i'll be there too!! my spring break isnt until like 3 weeks after that, but joe 90 is a good enough reason to make a weekend visit home... especially since my mother is amazingly being willing to pay for my plane ticket, since joe 90 seems to have cast their spell on her too... she keeps talking about chris' eyes and hugs :) and it's a 10 hour drive for her and we've only discussed this for like 5 minutes, but i'm sure kris will be there with me. anyway, i can't wait... see you guys there!!

pitt on the 26th?!

ha ha yeah right. i wouldnt do that 10 hr drive again if you paid me. well, you'd have to pay me a helluva lot of money.

working is bad. jobs are bad. i wanna go back to being on tour. i wanna be a rock n roll star*.

i got to check in our order today at Godiva. 60 freaking boxes. i almost slit my wrists with the box-opener thingy afterwards. it was hellish.

i gotta go write some email. i havent read the CC board yet, and franky, im afraid too. cant i just NOT like dan?!

gotta go call jenn at 9. i hope sue and aimee are having a good trip home*

btw, the weather is supposed to be nice thursday. so count me in for woodstock. im insane.

my life rules!
