Our Time Is Now

We survived our first day of Warped Tour. It was over 90 degrees out with the humidity level nearly breaking the barometer. It was both exhausting and exhilarating at the same time. We pushed ourselves physically and mentally further than any of us had gone before.

With only an hour of sleep or so, we played a rocking set and talked to tons of fans, which was one of the best parts of the day. So many great fans out there. We saw familiar faces and met tons of new ones. Here's Spencer and Christian to talk about how it went:

WARPED TOUR!!

440 miles from Atlanta to Orlando.
Departure time: 2:00am
Arrival Time: 8:45am
Sleep time: 1 hour (maybe)

AMP is ready to rock. Come check us out on the East Coast Independent Stage.

No More Darryl

After 10 trial days of being our main blogger, we've decided to relinquish the media duties from Darryl. We think he did a great job (well, most of us, at least) but he just didn't take the job seriously enough. Also, those blogging and picture duties cut into his roadie time, which left more work for the rest of us.

Darryl wanted to say a few things before he left so here he goes:

"Thank you so much for the opportunity to handle your Internets for the past week and a half. It's been amazing. I feel like I've been able to connect with so many new fans and hopefully I've left an impression and some of my wisdom has stuck with you all. Hopefully you've learned to appreciation Nelson for the great band and human beings that they are. And hopefully I'll be back again sometime soon. Always remember to party like it's 1991."

Darryl will remain on tour as our roadie, so please don't worry. You haven't seen the last of him yet.

In the meantime, today we were extremely productive. Life on the road takes its toll on everyone's bodies, brains, and brawn. So we had to take care of a bunch of life business: laundry, buying new bins for our merch, getting this new awesome video camera, and of course eating. We had to move quickly to get everything sorted out in this Target parking lot before the security guard came back and gave us a ticket.




Tonight we're playing at The Masquerade Theater in Atlanta, GA. It's this really old wooden building that was once an old mill built in 1890. Jason found out some disturbing information about the place:




We'll be joining Warped Tour for four more dates on top of the original three that we had scheduled. Keep checking back here for more information on those changes.

A Moment of Levity

In order to boost morale after the demoralizing fender bender, the AMP guys follow my advice and pump some iron for a rockin endorphin rush. Whether in a gym, in your house, on a freeway onramp in Louisiana, or in a parking lot in front of a cop, it's ALWAYS time for pushups.

Fender Bender in Tallahassee

It was bound to happen. Luckily for the guys, I was there to take care of business. Moving at a steady clip of about 1.3 miles per hour, TJ accidentally backed the trailer into a car. The damage is pretty minimal - I could pound it out with a rubber mallet and some elbow grease in about 14 seconds.

The owner of the car didn't take me up on the offer. Instead, Tallahassee's finest showed up to write up a report and dish out a ticket. The U-Haul suffered very little if at all. No visible damage on that beast. And, no one was hurt so it's all good. Welcome to life on the road. We're only a week and a day into the tour so there's going to be a lot more adventure to come. I'm ready for whatever comes at me.

Technology Bites It

Well, after a day of little to no connection with the Internet and the outside world, we're back online and in action. So, check out the band's adventure in and around New Orleans, LA.

Day 7 - Metairie/New Orleans, LA

Dealing with technological snafus is just one of the many headaches you have to deal with on tour. From issues with soundboards at the venues to trying to get a good internet connection. I'm stellar at handling sound problems at the show but this whole wireless internet thing has me totally confounded. Please bear with me while I figure it out. At the moment I can't show you all the photos from the Louisiana show at High Ground, so you'll just have to wait a little longer.

In the meantime you can check out this video of Spencer being an idiot:

Spencer's Fam in San Antone

Today was rough. We drove straight through the night, traversing all 983 miles from Phoenix AZ to San Antonio TX to make the show tonight at Rock Bottom. Our reward for not stopping and having to sleep in the uncomfortable van was hanging out with Spencer's Aunt and her family poolside. A welcomed change to the unbelievable oven-like heat of Arizona.

AMP put on a rockin show in front of a totally punk rock audience tonight in a tiny spot in the industrial part of San Antonio. They rocked the house, too. Kids with yellow mohawks moshed and jumped through the smoke-filled room toward the low ceiling. I gotta say, these boys know how to get a crowd riled up. It wasn't exactly their scene off the bat, but they got the crowd moving. Reminds me a lot of another band I know...

Everyone is pretty beat from the past 24 hours, most of which were spent in the van. I do not recommend sleeping in a van. Hopefully they have a good chiropractor in Austin when we get there tomorrow.

HITTING THE ROAD

This is it. I had to give the guys some pointers on how to load the trailer. Always put the cabinets in first. Always. This is elementary, fellas.

Other than that, these guys aren't too bad. For being an unsigned band on their first cross-country tour, not too shabb at all. I don't know about their showmanship but if nothing else, they definitely have the talent to be professional roadies. I'll teach them all they know. It's good to have a trade to fall back on in case the band thing doesn't work out. Plan B, as my Paps called it. I never bothered with one. For me it was always one goal: tour with Nelson. Those days are gone now and they were vintage times. Everything else after has just been icing on the top.

We're off to Phoenix, AZ to vanquish the One Place. See you on the road.

PACK YOUR BAGS!

I guess it's probably time that I introduced myself. The AMP guys heard about me through the grapevine. They wanted someone with experience. Someone who's been through it all.

They don't even know how much I've seen. I do know that they're in for quite a ride and I'm here to take you along with us. Granted, there's no way the Robot Roadkill Tour can be anywhere nearly as triumphant as the Nelson World Tour 1991. But what can?

My name is Darryl Mahoney and I'm a professional band gear manager. And now tour blogger as well.

We push out Monday morning at 5am. First stop: Phoenix, AZ. Goal: To severely rock the One Place.

Rock!
