DAY 52: Portland, OR

All good things come to an end whether you want them to or not. The feelings seemed to be pretty mixed on that exact subject as I talked with many of the bands from this years line up. Let's play a game called how many bands can you fit in one video, deal? Check out what Hey Monday, Pierce The Veil, Eyes Set To Kill, Fake Problems, The Cab, We Are The In Crowd, Andrew WK, Confide, Closure In Moscow, You Me At Six, Iwrestledabearonce, Breathe Electric, Anarbor, Mayday Parade, Mike Posner, Versaemerge, and more had to say about the tour coming to a close in the video below. I have had an amazing summer, thank you all so much for following along with me. Thanks especially to those of you who I met at your stops that came and said hello. I hope you all had the time of your lives as well and who knows, maybe I'll catch you again next year. A few photos of me and some of my best friends from this tour goofing off and saying goodbyes are also down there under the video. Until next year, adios.

DAY 50: BOISE, ID

For the 50th day of tour things started to get pretty bittersweet. Homestretch, 3 shows left and then adios. Boise, Idaho is where we stopped for our first show back out of California. I caught sets from typical tour acts like The Word Alive and Mike Posner, but a big surprise was in store when I wondered by the Kevin Says stage during The Bots set. The kids, literally KIDS, were jamming so hard that I spyed a few members of The Dillenger Escape Plan and Every Time I Die lurking in the crowd. Watch the video and decide for yourself, but that's some serious backage. I also hung out with my friends Jersey from Hey Monday and Brian from The Summer Set. After a long discussion about press and interviews Jersey decided he wanted to "interview" Brian about some things... Way to be a good sport B, way to be.

DAY 40, 41, & 42: Edmonton, AB, Canada

How do three days get thrown into one post you ask? Well... when the first two days are spent driving to the show haha. It was a crazy trek from Kansas to Edmonton. We drove from 11:00 PM until about 5:00 PM the next day then took a break at a hotel for a while then drove overnight and into the morning of the show. It was a long way to go for one show and a lot of the bands didn't get to make it unfortunately. The show was a smaller one but the fans were stoked and it was a lot of fun. The crews, bands, and production were visibly tired but still pulled everything off. Here are some photos and a few video clips. Another full drive day ahead to get back into the US and to the Salt Lake City show.

DAY 39: Bonner Springs, KS

Day 39 was in Bonner Springs which is near Kansas City. It was a strange venue, the ampitheater wasn't covered and it was pretty freaking hot. I definitely increased my ridiculous tan lines. i think I will permanately have a Vans Lo Pro line on my feet as well as a tank top line on my shoulders haha. The crazy thing about this day is that for me it really set in how close we are to the end. The time is seriously flying by so fast, only 13 days left and I think four of them are off/driving days... insanity. So before I dwell on that too long and get really bummed, on to Canada! It's going to take us two days to drive there so you better be ready Edmonton.

DAY 38: Shakopee, MN

Shakopee, MN was one of the smallest venues we have been at and was surrounded by hills so as we got off our buses we could look down into the park area. Everyone was pretty crammed together and there were crazy clusters of kids everywhere. It was almost impossible to get across the venue while certain bands were playing and the hot weather had returned so people were a little grumpy. Regardless, I had fun checking out Deas Vail on the Kevin Says stage, watching some of the Hey Monday kids do acoustic in the Kia tent where they covered a Jason Derulo song, and heard from Skullcandy stage manager Brooklyn who claims he hates everything... (except me & Tay.) I also caught We Are The In Crowd's set where the crowd did some choreographed sitting... no really, and hung out at The Summer Set's show where The Angry Penguin made an appearance. I hung out with some of you guys and helped some girls cut there new band tees into cool tanks, then closed out the day by watching Reel Big Fish.

DAY 33: Nashville, TN

For Day 33, we had an off day in Nashville, TN and a lot of the tour signed up as volunteers to help out with Hands On Nashville. Because of devastating floods to the Nashville area there is tons of trash that needs to be cleaned up in several natural areas, we took over this one creek area and while it was exhausting it felt great to help out. Check out what happened in this video recap:

DAY 31: Orlando, FL

Orlando was awesome, I met a lot of you guys too! The day started off with me swinging by the main Vans tent at the perfect time to accidentally meet Team America (or something like that...) My really good friends The Cab kicked off the sets and got moved to the main stage for the day and had a great crowd. Brian from The Summer Set also joined them on stage for one song. I hung out with Sierra from VersaEmerge in her trailer, and then met Tanner from Disco Curtis who closed things out by playing an acoustic song just for you guys.

DAY 22: Camden, NJ

Day 21... It's my birthdayyyy! Well, it was my birthday. Now it is two days later and I just now got internet again! Our internet on the road is always so sketchy but the last few days it has just been miserable. We were in Camden, NJ (really close to Philly) and it was my birthday so I took the day off... sort of. I hung out with my amazing tour friends and watched all of their sets. It was also my bud Cameron's birthday who techs for The Summer Set and The Cab. The Cab gave both of us a sweet birthday shout out on stage, my busmates surprised me with an adorable cake, I got some birthday cards from you guys (THANKS!), and The Summer Set and We Are The In Crowd surprised Cameron and I with another huge cake on their bus. After all that we got five taxis and piled in to head into Philly to go see a movie. Had a blast with members and crew from The Summer Set, The Cab, and VersaEmerge. Everyone was so awesome and I had a great day. I am going to be super bummed when this tour is over and I won't be seeing each of them every day. Check out some video clips and photos below, no real sets for today just some birthday shenanigans.

DAY 21: Scranton, PA

I think I lost my mind in Scranton, PA. Well, maybe not entirely but at least halfway. Day 20 consisted of catching sets, catching up, and catching rattlesnakes. No, unfortunately I am not kidding. The venue apparently is home to several of them and had built in cages to collect them in when they are found too close to people or in the attached waterpark. Check out the video below if you don't believe me. You should also check out the video to see VersaEmerge, Set Your Goals, some fun in the Girlz Garage, and a few clips from the late night BBQ. Sorry for being behind, intenret has been scarce the last 2 days. Catching up as quickly as possible.
