ATL - weird city, fun pockets - lots of bike kids coming out of nowhere when you drive through the ‘burbs.

We hit the Guitar Center again - recover from some damages that Jacksonville left on one of our bands - poor pedalboard got caught in the crossfire of a brawl.

Atlanta’s premiere venue - the Masquerade.  Built from the old Dupre Excelsior Mill, originally erected in 1890 or so, is a legit dungeons and dragons level.  The architecture is Castlevania meets…the inside of a pirate ship.  But the staff/kitchen/bar are all great - no swashbucklers or vampires (so far).

Tomorrow marks the second week of tour.  Our short run through Florida was definitely timultuous - violence in JAX, but sweethearts in St. Petersburg.  Lots of friends, family - and dare I say fun in the sun.

Our East Coast run is going to mark Thrash and Burn 2009 touching one coast, and then the other.  We’re excited for NC, PA - Baltimore…then the carnage begins in NYC.

See you there?  Stay tuned for some NYC related bonuses!
