Hello, Halo

Last week was possibley the best week of my fucking life. Not only did I vote in my first presidential election, but my main man Obama totally pwned McCain. I didn’t attend classes because they were cancelled Tuesday and Wednesday, then I was recovering from a MAGNIFICENT show on Thursday. Friday was long, but fucking AWESOME.

Hanson played with Everybody Else and Matt Wertz at the People’s Court in Des Moines on Wednesday, and it was probably the best show I’ve seen yet. It’s a small venue, and only about 500 people were there. Danielle, Tk and I were right up on the stage. It blew my fucking mind. Thursday we recovered, then worked in the evening. Friday morning Tk and I left Ames at 6:30 to head to Urbandale to pick up Jenna and April. We then drove 7 hours to Wichita where we took The Walk with Hanson and about 200 other people. It was a really good one, too. We did two miles around the campus of Wichita State University instead of the normal one mile walk, which means they made twice as much money. Woo! That night Tk and I sold merch at the show for Everybody Else. It was a cool venue. For those of you that live/lived in Davenport, the venue was much like Kimberly Pines Skate Park. It was a lot of fun. Hanson’s entire fucking family was there. Mom, Dad, Avery, Jessica, Zoe, Mac, Natalie, Kate, Nikki and all the babies. Momma Hanson is kind of tacky, but I really liked her. Haha. It was cool. A lot of times I tend to get trapped behind the camera, trying to document the entire evening, but since we were selling merch, I was able to just sit back, relax and enjoy. I felt bad for Jenna though.. it’s her last tour so she was a little depressed about it. I think Tk and I are going to try to do a big chunk of tour next year. It’s going to blow my mind.

I’ll post more later, but let it be known that this was the best fucking week of my life!
