I miss you, Knowles!

Made it to Nashville on Monday night. Met up with Buddy at the airport. Got picked up by Derrick Brown.

Made some hang with Dan Leamen, Derrick and his Lady Valentine. We ate some sweet-ass food at the Alley Cat restaurant, then we picked up Anis Mojgani and headed home.

We’ve been staying at his now-sold house in Spring Hill, annoying each other and making lots of noise, trying to get the last minute show touches…touched.

Wednesday we rounded up JW Baz and got some eats. Then we went to the Exit-In in Nashville to watch Derrick and Valentine’s group Spring Hill Spider Party. Imagine dance pop Berlinashville style. They opened for a pretty mediocre comedian, and should have definitely closed out the night. The comic “headliner” seemed to lose the people SHSP brought in. He did racial jokes and airline humor. Total new and edgy stuff…nicht!

Today we checked into our first hotel (cuz D&V closed on their house today! Yay for them!) and are rehearsing like bitches.

Derrick flew to L.A. overnight to perform on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno with the Cold War Kids, then we meet up with Valentine to watch him on the telly. You should too!

Then we head out to our first show in Atlanta.

I love you, Knowles!

Here is Derrick tossing a horseshoe in his now former backyard in Spring Hill, Tennessee.

Here’s Buddy giving Dan what-for on the science of shoe-in’. How about that backdrop!

Here’s the guys dancin’ the night away to Derrick and Panda’s sweet ass group, Spring Hill Spider Party. They played a rockin’ set at the Exit-In in Nashville. We had to get up and shake some of our collective booties.
