We run and run

hey y’all. We’re in Milwaukee.

Tonight, we were dumbstruck upon arriving at the Pabst Theater, here in sunshiney Wisconsin. We have played at some true palaces on this tour. I guess it was a shock, because obviously, my first  thought of Pabst has very little to do with underground fun bunkers for bands or crystal chandaliers. When we arrived at the theater, I went downstairs just in time to see a truly fierce game of St. Vincent foozeball (it was, I believe, Anthony and Daniel vs. Evan and Annie). Later in the evening, I watched Dana (st.V’s unstoppable, fantastic tour manager) walk her slinky down one of the beautiful staircases. It was just that kind of night. Nothing but fun and beauty, for us and for our audience.

We had a fun stop in Omaha yesterday. The Slowdown is in the stripsterest of all hipmalls, wedged among the American Apparel store, the Urban Outfitter, etc. Because of so many options, Omaha was looking predictably hot.

We’re really racing now. Every day (even tomorrow’s off day) are a dawn to dusk, high-intensity endeavor, and we’re having the time of our lives.

see you when we get there.
