EUROPE!!!! 6/6 - 6/9

Liepzig, Germany. Every night we get fed, which is awesome. But some nights we get fed SUPER well! Tonight was one of those nights. I tried to take it easy and not eat too much before the show, but every single thing they offered was amazing. Growing up in the southern US of A, I've had my fare share of fall-off-the-bone chicken, and this was up there with the best of them. Food!!
Leipzig crowd.

Bratislava, Slovakia. In case you didn't know, the Randal Club is a "live & wild rock 'n' roll music club. For reals, y'all.

Another awesome spread of bread, meat and cheese awaits us!

Earthship ruling it.

Bratislava crowd. Sorry, bros - forgot to turn on the flash!

Louis (The Ocean) takes the stage to the crowd and blows minds.

These dudes couldn't stay awake.

The worst "tequila" in the world! DO NOT DRINK. Trust us!!

Wien, Austria. TOTALLY AWESOME. The Arena is a huge compound with at least four stages and tons of rad people doing rad shit. Super fun night. Too fun...

Wien crowd.

It was so hot, Aaron had to relax in the cool down lounge for a bit.

Our "day off" the following day in Wien consisted of us following our new bro, Thomas, around the city to see some sights and drink some brews.

First stop was a brewery that offered killer Wienerschnitzel and potato salad. I wish every time somebody said "potato salad", this is what they were talking about!

Freshly brewed beers!

Another round before hitting the road...

Seeing sights makes you thirsty. I decided to class this one up with a glass of Austria's finest white.


Ok, another cool bar we must stop at!

"Hey, does horse meat taste good?" "YES! Let's get some!" "OK!"

Horse meat sandwich. FOR REAL! Pretty damn good! Taste like hot dog.


This is where you get a horse meat sandwich for about 2 euro.

Let's stop at this cool bar in the subway, for another round!

Oh, yeah - our new bro, Thomas, also hooked us up with a pick up show at the Viper Room Vienna (no relation, I think). All our tour mates came out and we partied. Good times! THANKS THOMAS!!!!!!!!

    Your meat sandwich is called "Leberkaessemmel"... with Horse meat: "Pferdeleberkaessemmel"!

    I am glad you had some nice austrian beer - much better than the soup in the US.
    If you are ever coming to Salzburg you should try some Augustiner beer at the Muellner Braeu Tavern!

What We Did For Our Summer 2013 Summer Vacation: Part Duex.

By
Okay, where were we? Slayer. That’s right. So, after all the craziness that was the first couple weeks of the tour we finally settled into our digs for the rest of the tour and met our driver Jens: Things you should know about Jens: The man can drive his ass off. You don’t want to eat his hummus, or he will kill you. If you’re a promoter that ripped off another band he was working for who happens to be at the show he is at, you best find a ATM because he will shake your ass down for all that loot. (Did that make any sense? I don't care.) After a quick bro down with him, we made our way to Interlaken where following a night of hanging with some road homies and watching some Rammstein… Wait, I have to say something right now. I, like a lot of people out there, have never given a good goddamn about Rammstein. Never got the allure. But after watching them live—HOLY FUCKING SHIT! I couldn’t tell you what one of their songs sounds like but their stage show

It was brought to my attention here (scroll to comments) that last time we were in town I didn’t do enough blogging about Aaron’s long-time friend Chad Belfor. Actually I’m surprised there wasn’t more comments on this subject. The people need to know what is going on with Chad at all times. The man is the heartbeat of the city, if Chicago is a heart, he is the Aorta. You put your finger on him to see if the city is still alive. For those of you who don’t know him let me fill you in on the enigma, wrapped in a puzzle, that is Chad Belfor: The first thing you might notice is that Chad is a deep well of emotion, look at him: But Chad is much more complex than that. Chad is a man who wears many hats. Husband, PGA card holder, father, former NASCAR driver, musician, gold medal Olympic athlete… Some of these things could be used to describe him. It’s no wonder that confidence just oozes from his pores: You got to be careful though because after he knocks back a couple tall cold ones the wil

European Headliner Part Three

You know the saying better late than never? This post very well might be an exception to that rule for the following reasons: 1)    I lost my camera and all the photos on it. So I have to use whatever is on my phone and John and David’s photos. 2)    Since being home I have had more beer poured on my face than a corpse at an Irish wake and remember little to nothing about the last couple weeks in Europe. 3)    Compared to the road where all there is a van full of dudes that I don’t really want to talk to after a couple weeks, at home there is a couch and cable to distract me. 4)    I took no notes about said last couple weeks because: 5)    I am really lazy Wiesbaden, Germany 4/27/12 I remember this place! It was an old slaughterhouse turned venue. Those rods on the ceiling are where they would hang the carcasses.  This is going to be easy. Winterhur, Switzerland 4/28/12 I got nothing. No! Wait! This was one of the most scenic drives of the tour as you can t
