it's all happening!

so the stranger, matt, turned out to be an amazing guy...we met up and had a real long conversation about all kinds of things and seemed to really get along well...i haven't seen him since that meeting 2 weeks ago and now we are leaving tomorrow for Florida! We will drive tomorrow for as long as possible and then possibly get a hotel room off of 95. Sunday we will make our way to gainsville to meet up at my friend Robert's place.Monday is the first show! I love first shows. I love the anticipation, the unknown. I can't wait to see the stage setup and what the intro music will be, and of course the band. I plan on getting to the venue early to listen to soundcheck. All these big venues are outside so that will be great for hearing soundchecks. In atlanta we are staying with my good friend luke and that will be the first show I have a pit ticket for. Gotta get there early! I even bought a cooler cause i know the area around the atl venue is a tad shaddy. Anyway I am super excited for this trip and ready to have an amazing journey. I will probably post my thoughts on the shows here, and I will be taking pictures!it's all happening!!!m
