Day 4 – After an attempt at a shower that none of us could operate we drove onward to the worlds largest concrete buffalo and also the home of the albino buffalo. We never saw the albino one, but the huge concrete one was dope. On the way to Minneapolis Dave got a speeding ticket for doing 60 is 35 construction zone. Sounds bad? It only cost $55. We seem to have picked up several flies that will not leave the van. It’s hard to sleep or read with flies buzzing around you. The show tonight at 7th Street Entry rocked hard. We got a real good reaction from the staff, but the alternative/hippie club goers weren’t too thrilled with it. Face to Face was playing the main stage when we got there and we got to watch a tiny bit of their set. I love that place, good sound, good atmosphere and a long history of great bands. Tonight we ate $5 steak and eggs and slept in a Wisconsin truck stop. We also decided to name our next band Firmest Thermos. Never mind.
