From Lil' T.O. To Big T.O.

We rolled into the big city yesterday afternoon. Spirits were good. WE's dad (who always treats us well when we come here) took us out to dinner at an amazing Indian restaurant. I was full... I've been worried about eating badly on tour, but I've been doing well so far. No red meat or french fries. I kept that up and still walked away very satisfied.

We drove to the bar and loaded in a little after 7. Nice, big venue. As it turned out there was a really, really good crowd. At least 150, possibly near 200. A guy did a psychedelic projection show over us (pic to follow). We played the whole album, with three older songs interspersed. T.O. crowds are stereotyped as being jaded, but this was absolutely not the case. Almost everyone came up front when we played (we opened). The stage was a good size, so I felt quite uninhibited. We all played hard, but the AC prevented us from really killing ourselves. As a result, the show was AWESOME!! Everything sounded great, really professional. We were tight. The improv song worked well. The scary-pop song ended the set. Tobe was bloodied. I'm not sure if people knew what hit them, but no one fled for the door. We sold a LOT of merch... 15 units in all (7"/CD). Our gas tank will be full for days.

Best show Be Bad has played, ever.

WE's dad put us up and fed us. Awesome times in the Big Smoke. We're all feeling great.
