DAY ONE!

We are super stoked to be on the road again! We get to share the road experience with our old buds Love Hate Hero, and Escape The Fate and new bros Before Their Eyes!



The venue was the Glasshouse, it was sooo sweet. While chillin waiting for the show to start, we took photos for Kerrang magazine! So all you overseas fans be on the lookout for that! After that we played pool upstairs. After a few games, playing pool turned into lets hit the half full Starbucks cup as hard as we can with the cue ball.



DESTRUCTION

We got NEW MERCH! Who wants some?!











The show was amazing. All the bands rock and all the fans out there were nuts!









Thanks so much for coming out everyone! We love you

Only 2 hours away from our cozy beds and we still managed to show up unfashionably late

The ROCK



The venue must not have had AC........it was brutal! It was so hot for some....people got naked



Wow

One thing i didnt understand about the venue.....



There was a door just for men to walk out of. No girls allowed through this exit!









Thanks everyone for rocking the heck out!

NEW MEXI!!!!!!!!!!

Launch Pad is where its at!



New Mexico is one of our 2 homes away from homes! We love you guys. The line was so long, not everyone could get in!



The venue was so packed, they had to clear out the bar area to let in 200 more kids! WOOOOH! One thing about New Mexico.....Eric just finds the need to poop



BADLY

We took a walk to the Good Ol Dumpster (remember last time?)



THERE SHE IS!



This time she wasnt allowing Eric terds to be dropped

LOCKED



When ya gotta go, you gotta go. Eric found a nearby staircase

El Paso!

Another one of our second home away from homes! You guys are crazy! Like this car in the parking lot



We played pool again tonight. Mike won the first game....i killed him in game 2



The show was sick. We played again with our El Paso boys Tonight Is Glory. The show was soooooooooooooooo HOT. LETS GET OUTA HERE



It was one of the hottest shows we have ever played. Hotter than Warped Tour. Our clothes needed to be hung out after the show



Too bad it rained 5 minutes after hanging up our soaking wet clothes. Thanks for coming out everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DALLAS

House of BLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUES! The venue was sooooo tight! So was the city!

COLORS



The venue had the coolest lights and rugs and paitings!



Unfortunatly for Before Their Eyes, their van broke down in El Paso. Hopefully they can get a quick fix! Love Hate was awesome!
