MELVINS TOUR

[Moss]

Figured I would post some thoughts occaisonaly as the Tour rolls along---

First show tonight--- Sacramento, CA

Long day, Drove up to SF from LA yesterday--- Took us 10.5 hours--- One of the reasons: While driving by Patterson, CA on I-5 we smelled buring rubber, then felt a slight bump--- Kevin remarked "Hey there goes our tire" as we watched our rear passenger tire roll by us and on down the hill into grass---- One, Wrecker Truck later and a new set of tires, we were back----

Today, massive traffic on the way to Sac. Saw an overturned camper--- Destruction already on the road, first day---

Finlly opened Andy's little box of goodies and decided instead of checking out all the prints he sent, I would just open them at each show and see them for the first time then---- First poster by Paul Imagine was great---- Saw some at the club as well--- Melvins extremly happy about everthing so far--- Thanks Andy, you fuckin rule----

Show was good--- Melvins played about 90 minutes--- Met Paul Imagine who did the poster and then proceded to call him Michael---- Sorry about that--- Great poster--- Also met Willy a bartender at the club who post here as well--- Willy and the staff took good care of us---

At hotel now---- Fuckin exhaused-- hitting the bed that awaits me--- Driving to Salt Lake City tomorrow-----

More from Mormon country later----

Moss,
When you boys get to Kentucky, I'll bring you some AWESOME BBQ and make sure you leave with all 4 tires in place and a full belly. Lanie and I will be front and center at the show... hope you like the poster I did.

i'm the guy who always brought the beer to the bands, helped them load in for years. i think you are who i think you are.

looking forward to seeing you again.

Tim Moss is the biker looking dude with the crazy long beard. Plays guitar for PORN. He looks like the guy your parents would never want you to hang out with. He looks like trouble.

dude in the middle.

Looks like Moss just punched Lombardo in the eye in that picture.
