This is the sorry post...

WOW! I have not posted at all in soo many shows. Since I last wrote, I have been to San Diego, Oakland, LA, Denver, Oklahoma City, and Dallas. That is 6 cities that I have not filled you in on. Of course I have been busy working, but mostly playing. SD was pretty uneventful to say the least. Then we did a show in Oaktown, which was ghetto as all hell. What else would you expect in the Bay? I went out with my boys to San Fransisco for a night, which of course led to some good stories. In summary of that night: mexican arm wrestling, gay bar, puking cab ride. Fill in the stories as you want, but they are everything that you would expect from me.

Then we did a show in LA, but were there for 4 total days. That was way too long. Got to see Neil and company, so that was good. After that show, we stopped in Utah
for a few hours on our long ride to Denver. The One and Only was the only bar in St. George, go figure. Luckily, we didn't stay the night and got the hell out of there. Denver was good times, nice city. Marks friends were cool, so that was another good night, not a good next morning...

We then headed to the OKC, and of course had a blast. It was a crew members bday, so we all got together and went out for it. Lets just say that the party didn't stop till 530 and we were in front of the hotel lol. On our way out of town we headed to the Oklahoma City bombing memorial. Cant say too much about that experience other than the fact that it was heavy. Just walking in you get goosebumps and tears just come to your eyes.

Sorry for that, it was just a moment. Well we just left Dallas. We only had one night there so I didn't get to do much, but its a nice place. The hotel was amazing, but a little to ritzy for me. We are on the bus now headed to Houston, and another ritzy hotel. New Orleans is Friday, and Memphis Sunday. Then I come home for a quick break.

Things are going really well at this point of the tour. I am starting to feel like one of the crew and we are all getting together to do things and go out. So things are definitely looking up in the social category. I am really trying to have some good stories to bring home, so stay tuned. I'm out for now, ill def update sooner than later this time. Until then,

Cheers

Viva Las Vegas and Nor Cal Stop 1

Wow, I want to start off by saying that I am sorry that I haven't updated this for a few days, its been hectic.  We have done alot of traveling in the past few days and I am in San Diego right now.  My time in Vegas was one trip tom remember, but I think it was too long.  Vegas is a city that has so much to do, but it takes a wallet full of bills to make it happen.  I was very happy with the Hard Rock Hotel, it was pretty much spring break in a hotel.  The Pink Taco was the best mexican food ive ever had, so I went a couple times.  I was also happy to get to check out Undefeted, the sneaker shop, right across from the hotel.  I got a pair of Jordan 1's to add to the sneaker collection.  The days i spent in Vegas were kinda tough because I was alone the entire time.  It is starting to get to me that I am doing everything by myself, so I have been making a great effort to change this.  Just on a side note, Flava Flav was at the show and he was pretty funny.

So we are leaving Vegas, on a 10 hour ride to Sacramento, and we got stuck in accident traffic for 2 hours.  So as we sat there on the highway, with the bus stopped, me and King Handles chilled in the back.  King is from Vancuver and is competing for the contract on the tour.  While we were in the traffic, we started talking to a hispanic family next to us.  This family was composed of a mom, dad, 15 yr old daughter, and 9 yr old son.  The daughter was very attractive, ahd to say lol, for her age and kept staring at me and King lol.  Well the point of this story is that the family was listening to music and taking requests which led to the whole family singing "straight outta compton" hahahaha.

So we get to Sacramento, stay at a shitty hotel, and nothing really happened.  I was so pissed that the only bar I could find within walking distance was some bowling alley, so that was interesting.  It was real hot for the show, and it was a pain sitting outside in it all day.  So anyway, I thought I would get to see Steph at this stop, but she was busy with competition, congrats to her for even being there.  

Well, I am here in San Diego, with a show tomorrow morning.  I went shopping today, in the many shops here, and got another pair of sneakers (force highs). I went out to a few spots for some beers today, but again, I am alone so its just not that fun.  After the show tomorrow, we will head to LA for 2 days, got to Oakland for 2, then back to LA for a show.  This whole travel lineup doesnt make much sense to me at all.  LA will be good because we are staying in the hills.  So untill then,

Cheers

First Stop, Seattle

Alrighty, so the first show is over and done with and surprisingly went quite smooth. My end went well and the competitors seemed to really enjoy the no drama, chill show that they dont get with HIN. The game was pretty fun to watch, lots of entertainment. I'm about to take my first bus ride, and it will by far be the longest at 16 hours. So this tour could get interesting fast.

As for the trip itself to Seattle, I really had a good time. This is a great city and you should definitely come check it out sometime. Seattle Joe was kind enough to show me around and even took me out to the mountains. Going out to the bar may have been a mistake, but meeting his friends was dope. I dont have much else to say to you guys right now, im sortof rushed to eat and hit the road.

It has been real great hearing from you guys on the net when im online and from facebook, soo thanks for that. I love to hear from my people on the moon. I should have more to say here, but im still trying to take this all in and settle down. Check out my picture site at ballertim.myphotoalbum.com , ill be posting all my pics on that site.

1 down, 29 to go. Cheers for now. Laters
