music+food=true love may 2010 tour- seattle still rules


best show of the tour thanks to our awesome host justin for not only taking us in but our bro brooklyn shawn and my cat as well! "They both sang, and kept time stomping their feet. Their back-and-forth was charming in the best sense of the word, and proved yet again that a man, woman, and good pair of boots still makes more compelling music than a laptop."

music+food+sk8boarding=true love may 2010 tour- last legs


we knew we were getting close to home when we got out of the car in arcata and smelled the sweet leaf. took in some roadside attractions and made new and old friends with some great bands in portland. skipped burnside to check out this park in battleground wa.

music+food+sk8boarding=true love may 2010 tour- the saint of cruising

it should be no secret that we have a huge soft spot for santa cruz. it's where we spent our honeymoon. it's where our favourite burrito place is. it's where our favourite rollercoaster is. it's got this sweet new skatepark.
now if we could only get a show there next time...show us some love devil makes three!

music+food=true love may 2010 tour- el lay, lalaland, the city of angels

lalaland? more like lululand! cutest frigging cat ever! good show, glad to be back at the echo where i played my last and maybe only other good l.a. show. got to see some of our rad friends who've been relocating to silver lake and echo park as of late. big thanks to mo and dave for being awesome hosts and hooking up the show...
"This husband and wife duo just happened to be passing through town and picked up the gig much to the audiences delight. Their songs were basic and folky, but the charm and conviction with which they deliver their music was refreshing." (show review from examiner.com

music+food=true love may 2010 tour- joshua tree uber ales

gram parsons, U2 were right about this place. joshua tree truly feels like your on another planet in a doctor seuss book.
just a stones throw from joshua tree, pappy and harriet's pioneertown tavern is a popular stop for bands all across this great land of ours, from nyc to la people had told us how lucky we were to be playing here. this little desert oasis has awesome food and super friendly staff, can't wait to come back to the "best honky tonk west of the mississippi".

gator tour 2010

the louisiana swamp tour was well worth it just to hear the guide's accent which sounded like french canadian with a southern drawl...shit i just had a brilliant idea, crawdad poutine!
camping at woodsy hollow in east texas totally reminded us of lakeside except you couldn't swim in the lake because of the gators! i'll stick with our beavers thanks

music+food=true love may 2010 tour- nashville is sinking

nashville got hit by the worst rainstorm it's had in 60 years the day before we got there. our friends and hosts david and lauren vandervelde were in pretty good spirits by the time we rolled in considering they'd spent the previous two days cleaning rainwater and mud out of their basement.
apparently only white suv's were allowed to be abandoned on the flooded downtown streets...
