July 13 OK OK OK --- So, we started towards Canada.
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - ect. hour drive. We woke
up at 8:00 AM to get there on time. Well, we got
to the border and they made us pull over. I knew
something was bad; they really didn't like the looks of
us. So, first we find out that our friend Matt can't
go in cause when he was young he got caught for gaffing
and Canada don' t like dat. So about 2 hours later
we were hungry, bored and confused. We've spent
2 hours at the Canadian border before so it wasn't above
and beyond ridiculous. Buuuut 5 hours later we were
getting, how do you saw...........pisst.
We find out while in our van they found Steve's planner
and it said we were playing a show that night..... However,
we had told them we were recording. Dan was
taken to the back, like a movie, in a room with two strapped
officers. There were blinds and all in the room.
We were all questioned and 7 1/2 hours later Dan was arrested
for false "this and that" and was taken away. We were
all banned from Canada for one year.
So we drove home..... sorry we didn't make the show...
Trust me we didn't know that we were really driving 8 hours
to drop our friend off in prison.
LATER : We find out that Dan (WE) have to pay a
fee of 600.00 Canadian - about 450.00 bucks. (Correct me
if I'm off) and he's banned for..... 5 years.
However, we're gonna see the Prime Minister like they
said and see if we can get a waver. We've been all around
and the Canadian border is definitely the hardest to get
through. Well sorry to all who were at the shows..........................
Um on a lighter note, tomorrow on Saturday I'm having
a yard sale. Cause I went skydiving with Jason and
after.... well we're gonna get our licenses. So....
I need to make about 1200.00 by Sunday. I'm selling
everything I own and I mean everything. Every TV stereo
and couch in the place is O.U.T.
CHECK THIS OUT:
Like I said Jason and me went Diving, NO not TANDEM (with
someone) we took the 8 hour training class and went solo.
(Actually Sean P. Rogan is off right now, he jumps tomorrow).
So Jay and I did it and when I was falling one out of the
eight problems you might have with your shoot happened to
me. Mine got all twisted like a swing, and while falling
I had to reach above, pull, and the rises (straps) swing
my leg around to get some momentum and untwist each twist.
And yes yes yes I DID IT. We fell 125 mph -
8,500 feet. HA HA HA HA HA HA And we're going back
to get our licenses RRRRRAWWWWW huh.
So come to the yard sale HA HA HA

CANADA SHOWS UPDATE!
June 11 Well, thanks to everyone who went to the
shows up in good old CANADA. Man what an adventure this
one was. First we actually got through the border without
a problem. See, usually we get there and they're like, "ya
right, pull over". (see you can bring merch in to Canada,
well you can but they'll tax you. So you gotta hide it.
I heard they even made SKAVOOVIE set up and play to prove
they're a band.) So we got through with NO problem, we didn't
have to spend our usual 4 hours there doing NOTHING.
Anyway both show were incredible. Man there were like 1,100
people at the one at the Spectrum. I was fuck'en nerrrvas.
So, I broke the laces of my right shoe during the first
song and have to duct tape it together. I was Run-DMCing
it for In Front Of Me, ha ha. Then later I jumped over some
of the drums and somehow got my left foot caught on Steve's
bass stock. That made my other shoe get messed up.
We got to play a new song "EVIL GIRL - ANGRY GIRL" for
the first time. I think we might have even played it right.
Anyway Sean Flores the man who makes all the Fork In Hand
merch. made all this crazy shit for Big D. I told him it
would be cool to have, this-that and the other thing and
then BLAME he made it. The stuff is crazy you'll have to
check it out. Well, I'll just tell you some cause I can
keep a secret, he made hats, and jackets, well that's all
I'll say.
Finally someone bought my old boots that I used to where
to shows. My parents where throwing all my shit away and
I found my boots and could let them go in the trash so I
put them on the Merch table and someone bought them for
$5.00 American.... THANKS MAN - let them live on.
Well Big D is now writing new material for upcoming surprises...
p.s. Check out the band Couch Addition from Canada, they're
really nice .
