modesto.

It has been a day.

Left Santa Barbra this morning at 7 am....i think...... then drove for 4 hours to Modesto, Ca.
While on the drive however my GPS totally stopped picking up Satellites all together! It was really lame. I mean i knew where i was going kinda and i did have a map and 2 other gps sources with me but still my main GPS going out was lame.
so we got to Modesto and it was raining. rain rain rain... all sorts of rain. yay.
load in for the show went really well, i didn't think that we were going to get anything done anytime soon. i was soon proved totally wrong. the crew was great in every way, they were quick, bright and fun to be around.
i was most taken back by the sound guy, he only asked a few questions here and there and had everything set up and working before i even know it. he was great! mixed everything and did the full check in no time also had everything way clean. blew me away.

so after the show we went to the hotel, which the venue paid for.....fools.... the roomed us up in the Double Tree, which is a extinction of Hilton Hotels. sooo they were really nice and very pretty and comfy. but everything cost an ass ton.... sorry forgot to take pics.
i was given my own room which happened to be on the 7th floor. it was a good view. however i wasn't near anyone else in the group.... which i wasn't too happy about.. i like hanging out with the acrobats. oh well..
so the room ended up being a handicap room. lots of room in this place. the bath room had a huge shower, the bed was a king size, the place was just lovely. however everything that you wanted to do would cost money.... like lets say, water.....5 dollars..... or the internet...10 dollars for 24 hours. and the bar was just stupid as well.. but like i said before... i didn't have to pay hehehehehe, so i drank the water and got the internet. yay. oh then after i was done with the water i filled it back up and set it next to the other one and put the label back on it. pwnd. hehe

now i say good night... tomorrow we drive to Humbolt, ca.
