[Liberty Blog] Maryland

Hey ya’ll.

So we are in the van on the way to UNC Chapel Hill. It’s raining. Gross. We left real early this morning so we’re all a bit tired. Nothing some coffee can’t fix though. I want to say a quick thanks to the kids at UMD College Park. You guys were such a huge help and the whole night was really enjoyable for us. I hope you all had a good time too. I’d like to personally apologize on behalf of our manger Eddo and LiNK’s Justin Wheeler for rapping uncontrollably after the show. I almost just wrote “they aren’t normally like that” but that’s not true at all. They are ALWAYS like that. It’s pretty intense actually.

We got the day off yesterday to hang out in DC. It was great to take a break and catch our breath for a minute. This tour has been pretty tiring so it was nice to just hang out with each other. I wandered a bit by myself and then made my way back to Borders where I found the rest of the guys. Jason and Joe are writing again so they had their notebooks out and were brainstorming away. The rest of us were flipping through magazines, reading, sleeping, just doing nothing for a little while. I made my way to my brother’s apartment and hung out there for the evening. His wifey made us dinner, which was also great. Its sad that I can count the amount of vegetables I’ve had since we left on one hand. Gotta work on that a bit. Seeing family in the middle of tour was a great way to step back and recharge.

I wish I could read in the car. I get super car sick though and that just ruins everything. There is so much down time sitting in this van! It’ll be nice to get away from the east coast soon so at least the scenery is a little different. Anyway, enough of my rambling. We look forward to playing tonight, as always.

More soon,
Colin

PS. This is my first post since we started this blog. Its actually kind of fun. Maybe I will write more. I’ll try to think of some good stories for all. Seacrest out.

Yay! You guys were awesome at Chapel Hill! I guess there wasn't any 'uncontrollable rapping' tonight :] Hope all of you guys get some rest!

Colin,

Hey, If you get a chance, look for me at the show in Atlanta. I'll be wearing a black shirt that says "I AM THEIR VOICE."

I am trying to collect signatures for a petition on behalf of North Korean refugees that are in China. The petition will be sent to the Chinese Embassies in London and Wash DC. The message pretty much says "We know what you're doing to the North Korean refugees and those that help them, and we want you to stop."

I emailed LINK a few weeks ago and asked if I would be allowed to circulate the petition and they said YES! So if y'all get a chance, please announce it from the stage. I'd like to get as many signatures as possible to be sent to London in December.

If you want to see the petition, go to runforyourlife.info

I will have two other volunteers with me to help collect signatures. Also, I was on the radio last week talking about the situation with the refugees and also mentioned you guys, Andy, and the concert.

I'm currently working with someone who is coordinating a coffee house concert here in Chattanooga, TN, where I'll be able to speak for a few minutes and collect signatures afterwards. AND we're going to have our own human rights campaign in downtown Chatt. during the third week of October.

...PLUS MORE TO COME!

I look forward to seeing y'all!

Anything juicy or exciting? This is Miss Vintage's first big tour.

It's all good and polite to thank your hosts, but have u considered tacking that at the end of the post so we can get to the important part? ;P It's beginning to sound more of a recording than a blog.
What about the show itself? Travel is a huge part of this whole experience, but you have yet to share what it's like performing to the various crowds. Any boos or encores? Hookups or fights? Moments of solidarity or enlightenment? (Yes, we hope for these things.)Share as your music speaks.
