i fucking love athens GA. as soon as we got here we pulled into taco stand

holy shit. i ate so much. it was bombtastic. then me and bernard went to a recording studio where all these mega famouse bands recorded.. for example
CARRIE NATIONS!
they had a framed carrie nation lp on the wall.. it was awsome! they have a 1/2 in. tascam 16 track recorder!!!!! i want it!!!!
i will take pictures when we go back on friday to pick up the animal electric cds. then we went to this bar. and the bar tender was like.. "you play drums" and then it turns out we played a show together in baton rouge. he was the drumer for madaline adams. he looked way different.. no 3 foot beard anymore.. then we ran into some people in the street that lived in new orleans.. blah blahblah.. this city is crazy . every one is conected to everyone.. compleat strangers.. whatever.. ok. well i am goin to try and convince bernard to ditch this libray and goto a bar or taco stand.. peace!
