I'm Alive Tour Blog Day 17!
Whats up guys, its Derek. Its been a couple days but we’ve been super busy. So a few days ago we played in Reno, Nevada at the Knitting Factory. Its safe to say that it was definitely one of THE best shows on this tour so far. The crowd was amazing and the kids were great. There was however, one particular security guard who decided rather than catch the kids crowd surfing, it was a...

I'm Alive Tour Blog Day 16!
Hey Guys, Its Nick again, we just rolled into Reno (The Biggest Little City in the World), and I can already see Travis pulling out his nickels and dimes to hit up those “loose slots.” Tonight should be interesting. So last night we played in Eugene, Oregon and it was our first time ever playing in the city. We played a venue called The Wow Hall. This is a cool spot. The...
anopenmindtoaclosedoffworld asked: This is not a question but a comment (I just got Tumblr to say this) You guys are amazing. You have no idea how happy I was when you guys took the stage in Vancouver! You have been such a inspiration to me and I just wanted to thank you guys for the songs and the awesomeness of your live shows. Truly amazing. I was too nervous to approach you guys at your merch table because I had not clue what to...

I'm Alive Tour Blog Day 12! (little depressing)
Tonight is our last date in Vancouver, BC, Canada and it has definitely been an interesting one. I’ve had so much stuff to tell you guys but I’m going to keep this one as short as possible and get to the major points.
We’re in the heart of China Town. This part of the city has been overrun by drugs and poverty. I’ve never experienced a place so wild. We haven’t even...

I'm Alive Tour Blog Day 9!
Hey guys,
Writing this Blog from on WCARs bus driving through the Rocky Mountains in Vancouver, Canada. Last night we played in Edmonton and had a great time. So many of our new friends from Calgary the night before made the 3-4 hour drive up to Edmonton to throw down with us again.
The show was awesom and everyone showed us a great time. Unfortunately we had a rough moment last night. Some...

Such a beautiful city and def. showed me not all of Canada looks like Kansas, (what we have experienced driving across it)
Tomorrow we are headed to Edmonton, then Vancouver before...

I'm Alive Tour Blog Day 3!
I have a headache and I think the picture above explains exactly how our night went. I will never understand why gas stations sell some of the crazy stuff they do. I found all of those animal hats along with a wide variety of bedazzled sun glasses that only Lady Gaga would wear. Oh well! I think we scared the gas station employee behind the counter. He didn’t look very happy. The show in...

I'm Alive Tour Blog Day 2!
Whats up guys, It’s derek here to recap day two of the I’m Alive Tour. Last night we played at the Riverside Ballroom in Green Bay, WI. None of the bands had ever played Green Bay so we didn’t know what to expect. Walking in felt like we were going to prom, ha ha. It was a huge banquet hall with chandeliers everywhere.
Before the show we walked down the street to Mcdonalds...
