Top 5 Tour Lists

Midwest Beat and Night Light Comics tour came to an end yesterday. It was incredible, it was amazing, it was hilarious, it was delicious, it was stinky and comfy and the reverse of those too. There were only 2 noteworthy problems, 1- the radio was being a little fucker and 2- the lighter outlet ceased to work after 100 miles thus eliminating the power source for all of our cell phones and the gps. Other than that, we got along great, made it everywhere we needed to be on time, and found interesting ways to spend our time in an old fashion journey with an atlas dictation by J-man's many personalities inside a 1994 astro van named "Clambridge."
