|||TOUR OF TEARS 2009 WRAP UP|||

Not a lot of internet access on the road and even less time means the entire last act of TOUR OF TEARS 2009 will be economically summarized here with images.
So Pity Party, Happy Hollows, and Rumspringa rocked El Paso and then Dallas,which concluded the epic history-making TOUR OF TEARS 2009.

Heisenflei and M decide to take the waters at Barton Springs on their way into Austin. Notice their playful expressions and irrepressible joie de vivre.

Heisenflei and M currently sit on the floor of the Austin Convention Center taking advantage of the free wi-fi. Tonight they play Art Disaster at The Beauty Bar at 7 pm. Be There!!!
Cheers,
Pit

This is how the pity party prepares for a tour:


Gocco Madness


Some bands practice, others meditate, and still others get trashed on the eve of the tour. Not the pity party, who fill the slipping seconds of their lives with such activities as cutting up trash into 2 x 3.5 inch rectangles and printing on them (in this case via the life-altering technology of Riso Print Gocco!)


Last night our heros joined RUMSPRINGA and THE HAPPY HOLLOWS for the triumphant night one of TOUR OF TEARS 2009 (tm). The three bands got along famously and to quote hippies, "It was good vibes all around." Special thanks to Ruby Room Phoenix's Rhonda for her sound-mixing autism, which she wasn't aware of until last night.


Heisenflei and M have noticed an eerie dearth of Starbucks in Arizona. If anyone might have information as to the origins of this phenomenon, please inquire within.


Salutations,
