We're home! We made it through three shows and a late night-sleepy drive yesterday to round out our fall tour. Our first show of the day was an acoustic radio/tv show on WUGA--"It's Friday!" with host Rob Holmes. We didn't know it was a tv show until the day of, so we weren't prepared with clean clothes, tv hair, or anything like that, but we had fun! After that, we played a house concert (there was great food too; we stuffed ourselves with brie cheese and crackers, fancy-looking spreads, nuts, and tiny things). Then we took our hors d'oeuvres -filled selves to Tasty World --no pun intended--for our rock show to fill out the evening.
Our Thursday in Nashville was both fun and quite surprising. . . After a fun set at Cafe Coco we ran into an old friend from my [this is Melissa] high school who just happened to live in Nashville and coincidentally was hanging out at the venue for the songwriter showcase later in the evening. We hadn't seen each other for eight years; it's such a small world! So after some beers, pizza, and catching up, we started out on the long trek to Athens, GA.

So, now that we're home, our posts will be a little more sparse, but we promise to keep up the journal (practicing at home just isn't as exciting as playing for people all across the country. . .). However, we've got some exciting new sounds and songs up our sleeves that we'll be debuting at our CD release party at the Grey Eagle in Asheville, NC on December 10th. We will, of course, give you all in computer-land a taste; we'll have video posted shortly after the 10th!
