East to West Busking Tour Video

we made it back alive

well, i guess we made it. we have returned to asheville. we returned a little earlier than we had planned, basically we got tired and were ready to return home and felt we had accomplished a good bit and what we missed we will hit in the near future. We want to say thanks to all those people that helped us out with a place to stay, a free meal, a jumpstart to the van. all those things made this trip possible and pretty painless. I think we only had a couple of not so good nights of sleep. we really were not sure how this would go. We had a great time and look forward to more adventures on the streets of everytown USA. We will begin working on the documentary and hope to show it in the near future.. we may have a trailer or short version for our return show at THE NEW FRENCH BAR on August 24th. we will keep you posted. thanks again for all your support.

long time no post

well i guess it has been a while since the last post. sorry about that. it is not because things have not been going on so i will try to catch you up.
we have hit ann arbor MI, warren PA, rochester NY, ithaca NY, burlington VT, portland ME, and now we are in NJ. we have been taking it easy in point pleasant NJ staying with Emily's mom and catching some surf. tommorrow we are headed to new york city to hit the parks there.
things have been well. ithaca, portland, and burlington were awesome towns for us. they all felt like sister cities to asheville and we were happy to find them.
we will be back in asheville on or by august 13th.we are having a celebratory return show on august 24th at the NEW FRENCH BAR. we are starting to miss asheville a little so please come out i know that we will be excited to see everyone upon our return.
take care and i will try to update more often

the road back to the east

just a quick update on where we are at the moment. from san francisco we hit lake tahoe. lake tahoe is a beautiful area but not much of a seen for busking on a Monday night. we looked for the Godfather house but couldn't see it from where we were. after tahoe we headed for salt lake city. once again beautiful town but not much busking going on for a tuesday night. our next stop was to be Boulder. Boulder was awesome. We set a new record beating out the previous San Fran record and made several new friends one of which put us up for the night (much appreciated Justin) which made the search for a campsite at 1 am unnecessary. the next day we played another short session and went on our way through nebraska and iowa on an all day drive. we wanted to play Iowa city but we did not make it in time given our scheduled show in chicago. I have to say given our recent trek back and forth across the midwest i feel less concerned with over-population. there really is a lot of blank space out there if you are feeling crowded. Our chicago show went great at the Charleston where we also ran into several ashevillans and cafe on the square employees. thanks again for driving all the way to chicago just to see us... that's real support folks. we took the next day off for once to relax and recharge and the following day we hit Lincoln Square in chicago just down the street from a folk festival that was going on and did really well. i guess that is about it for chicago we are headed for ann arbor michigan tomorrow. if you know anyone there tell them to look for the speedsquare handi-van.
take care and thanks for checking in

the streets of San Francisco

San Francisco has been really good to us. we have made tons of new street friends. all very interesting folks you will see in the videos posted below. Josh and Nicole have been awesome host taking care of us and coming along recording video and showing us where to go in the city. much appreciation. it would be a different trip without their help. we had a few request for some b roll footage of the trip so I worked some in to the new footage. hope you like. I am not sure where we are going next but we have to be in chicago by the 13th. we will most likely head north a little further and then head east toward boulder. we will be planning our next move tonight. take care and thanks for checking in on us.
also the footage had to be broken into two parts. the top is the first part and the bottom the second.
