yesterday we got one of the greatest compliments we could ever get … and that was from El Hefe, NOFX.  He said he loved our band.  Then we heard the same thing from Anti-Flag.  On a tour as split as this one, to get that kind of shout out from the 2 most bad ass bands in the world, much less on this tour implies to me that we’re doing something right.   Perhaps it’s the dichotemy of this years Warped.  You’ve got the massive heavy hitters like Bad Religion, NOFX and Anti-Flag who have all been killing it for years and then you’ve got the newcomer garage-band/ipod bands.  To each his own and i’m happy for everybody however if there must be a line drawn in the sand, ML wants desperately to be on the genuine one.  We’re blown away by the support we’re getting from kids - the shows are insane and we’re very lucky for that.  getting caught up in gay ass drama is the last thing we give a shit about.  we care about music, our songs, playing live and meeting amazing people. we’ve got some killer tour news coming up soon and today we get to play Scranton, PA so I couldn’t complain about anything even if I wanted too !  I saw Saosin yesterday and they killed it.  Same with Chiodos, AGAIN.  The Ataris and Underoath kill it every day as well..  Aside from Projekt Rev this is the best tour we’ve ever been a part of - huge thanks to Kevin Lyman for that.

Last night Schprokit had some friends in town so they had themselves a campfire jam behind the trailer which is always good times.  and reminds me to go check out schprokits band DEADBEATZ !  we also tracked a cover of “Go Getta” from young jeezy and R kelly..  Deadbeatz (young jeezy) VS Madina (r.kelly).  We’ll share that soon, it’s BAD ASS. have a lovely day

oh one more thing - I’m reading “Guns Germs and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies” by Jared Diamond.  MUST READ
