Since the next show was in Chico, the AM! bus was driving all the way to Redding to spend the day off, so we followed them. I woke up at 8am to have breakfast with Will and Brendan, and then slept for most of the 7 hour drive down to Redding. Although it seemed kind of crazy to be driving back DOWN the coast when we had just driven up it, it did mean we got another stop off in Weed.
Kim bought everyone on the tour Weed rub on tattoos at the shop I had previously purchased my tyedyed Weed tshirt. That's 24 rub on Weed tattoos.
Because of the long drive we didn't get into Redding until around 5:30. I messed around trying to make my iPhone work while everyone else watched football in the AM! hotel room.
At 8:30 everyone from AM! and the three of us walked the one mile to the local Olive Garden. Let's see, so it was: Matt and Kim and I, Andrew (AM! bassist), Warren (AM! drummer), Tom (AM! guitarist) and his fiance Heather, James (AM! guitarist) and his wife Anne, Christoph (AM! sound tech), Dave-o (AM! guitar tech), Jordan (AM! tour manager), John (AM! stage manager), Britey (AM! merchandiser), Ryan (photographer) and Chris (AM! graphic artist). I think that makes 16. It was a big table.
We had a lot of salad, bread sticks and wine. And pasta and dessert. And fun. I got a cell phone picture as we were leaving:

Picture left to right: Heather, Tom, Kim, Jordan. The last blur could be anyone.
We walked back to the hotel and I think I went right to bed. But to be honest I can't really remember. I probably played with my iPhone some more. No! No wait, we watched Alpha Dog in the AM! bus and then I went to bed. But I most definitely played with my iPhone during the entire movie. Which I had seen before. I have still have a huge crush on JT.
