After Georgia, the Warped Tour made its way down to Florida for four of the hottest, stickiest days yet on the tour. Our favorite day out of the four was Miami. The venue was right near the downtown region and it was in a really gorgeous park. It started pouring in the middle of the day, but we were fine as we've rain-proofed our tent! It cooled everything off and and after that the weather was great. After the show we walked down to an area called Bayside, and had some delicious Chili's for dinner. We hung out with our friends Johnny from Fearless Records and Ryan from Epitaph Records and shortly after it was time to leave for our next date, Charlotte, NC.
The next few days on the east coast were really fun for us because even though we aren't from that area of the country, it was a good feeling to be back east! We were the closest to home we'd ever been, and thats super comforting when you're gone so long! Alesana is based out of Raleigh, NC and Baltimore, MD so their families came out to visit. It's funny to see where these crazy guys came from...
Leaving the east coast, we headed to the midwest for shows in Ohio and Michigan. For the Cleveland date, our bus driver Jenevieve had some friends come over and set up shop. The bus became a mobile hair salon, tattoo and piercing parlor where the guys and gals from Addicted Body Arts of Parma Heights, OH did some amazing work. We spent the next day in Detroit at Comerica Park, home of the Detroit Lions. The stadium was amazing and we got to field-level when we went to take showers inside the underbelly of the stadium! As the first two Canada dates were directly after Detroit, we took a couple hours to pack and organize everything for the trip across the border. The day was really fun, but the best part was that Starbucks set up a tent in catering so we got free iced coffee ALL DAY. It was incredible...it's the little things that count, you know?
