Day 10- July 25th– New Purpose Community Church- New Port Richey, FL

Posted By: Travis

Today we were able to rest in the comfort of the DeMaso home and enjoy having some chill time. Brian Demaso has been Jesse’s roommate for the last two years and he helped book us this show when our previous Tampa date fell through. The Demaso’s actually paid to have our album pressed and we are forever grateful to them. This morning we went to Guitar Center to get some strings and Jesse needed a new head and snare for his drums. The DeMaso’s just got a new pool and we put it to good use since it was probably one of the hottest days of the tour. When we got to the church, I didn’t really know what to expect because it looked like a big white dome. Once inside, it actually looked really sweet. It’s a temporary tent. We unloaded the gear and did a sound check. Afterwards we took another dip in the pool since we had some time to kill, had some pizza, and then headed to the show. We met up with the Woodale boys and the show went well. Also we just received our new video camera in the mail thanks to the Demaso’s so keep an eye out for tour footage. The show went well except that several times during our set we overloaded the generators that run this church tent and shut everything off. We powered through and finished and everyone really seemed to enjoy themselves. Afterwards Mrs. Demaso cooked us an amazing dinner and we hit up the pool again.
