Great weather and beautiful urban planning [WARNING: SARCASM]

Houston is a sprawling disaster of a city, possibly the most repulsive metropolis I've ever seen. We're staying with a couple of Justin's friends on some edge of the city in a nice little house in a residential development with three dogs and movies and video games. Both of our Texas shows have been cool venues with low attendance, due to a last-minute venue relocation an hour away from the original spot and minimal promotion, respectively. We're headed to San Antonio in less than an hour. Not sure what to expect from that show. Tomorrow will be the first of a number of shows with Imperial Leather (awesome early-80s style rockin' punk from Sweden) that will probably be relatively big.

Tijuana's a no-go, but we picked up a show with Imperial Leather in Reno during our five-day break between Oakland and Portland.
