Some stats about the trip

Blogging while everyone gets ready to go...

In the car yesterday we counted how many states we will have driven through once we get back to Texas. Fifteen. We've gone more than 3,000 miles, filled up about 8 times, stayed in 8 houses of people we didn't know before, 1 hotel room, and 2 houses of people we did know.

Some of the bands we played with and listened to in the van are: BOTD, Colossus, Suzukiton, Red Collar, Kylesa and Goliathon. I can't find the CDs I got in Michigan right now but they are in my stuff somewhere. I'm hoping one has the rap songs on it.

Other stuff we've been listening to: Mastodon (new album), Queen, The Advantage, Tomahawk, Flaming Lips, Bill Hicks and David Cross comedy, Megadeth, William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy Space Out, B-52s, Pink Floyd, Led Zep, Rush, various other classic rock and metal such as Sir Lord Baltimore and Sledgehammer. That's all I can think of right now but much has been played in the 40 hours or so we've been in the van so far.
