MORE ON FOOD

To continue elabotrating on the topic of tour food, 311 has this catering crew that prepares dinner for us each evening at the concert venue. The food is absolutely FABULOUS. They go to the supermarket every morning in whatever town we happen to be in and select the best and freshest foods they can find.

They then create a menu that provides all the bands and crew members with a choice of a vegetarian dish, fish, meat, and poultry. All of it is soooooooooo darn good (I'm just assuming that the meat dishes are good) that I can't wait to eat dinner every night! We've never before had the option of eating GOOD food while on tour. Otherwise Brandon and I would probably be condemned to three meals a day at the Waffle House! (yeah, right)

So now I'm going to change the subject: To all the cool people we've met while on this tour: We WON'T forget about you! Everyone assumes that because we meet so many people every night that we don't care about them and that is simply not true. I can't stress that enough! Our fans are what keep us alive and we live to MAKE people have a good time. So if you're at a show and you want to talk to one of us, please don't be shy. Just come up and say Hi!
