Here is Billy's: February 20, 2006 Norfolk, VA
Hello again, checking in from Norfolk!!! The tour is winding down quickly but the memories will last a lifetime, b/c this is the most miserable job anyone could ever wish for. I am trapped in my own hell. Scott Stapp once sang " I've created my own prison" now i know....I know man.
Just kidding!!! this is a great time and would not take a moment back....except the malfunctioning equiptment. Lets see; Washington was the best crowd yet. No disrespect to my hometown. The crowd was on its feet from the get go and singing along the whole time. They even rushed the stage during "trees". It made for a great mood after the show as we had alot of freinds visiting to celebrate with. The had to be twenty some people on the bus after the show and we threw down. The next day was off in Norfolk, VA where I visited the battleship Wisconson and went to a giant mall. I shopped and had dinner.
Here we are on show day and all signs point to a good night. Knock on wood for us. Charlotte, NC is next!!!! Warmer weather here we come!!!

and Marty's:
El Capital! We had an interesting run this past week. Lots of crazy weather and huge arena gigs. We had what felt like a marathon string of performances in a row. Yesterday we got an entire day off. No show, no press, no photo sessions, no phoner interviews. It was bliss. I am psyched about our show tonight in Norfolk, VA. I just stepped into the venue for soundcheck and the place is beautiful. Lots of friends in town tonight. Actually, we have had freinds coming out to the last few shows. I have been running into old friends I have not seen in years. So nice to reconnect for a moment and look eachother in the eye and know everything is going allright in life. The Washington D.C. show was packed with Lovehammer fans and we definitely felt the love in the house. I got more SMC garders than any other night on the entire tour. The signing was a blast. Sorry if Tour Manager Ted gets a bit authoritarian about pictures but he just wants everyone to get a chance to meet the band and say hey! There is about two more weeks to go on this leg of the tour. So far, it has been an incredible run. I think we are performing better each night and finding our groove. I still can't figure out what I am going to do with myself if I have a week off. It will feel strange to not have something to do every minute of the day. I will most definitely think of something.
Marty Casey
