RICHARD´S N. AMERICA PHOTOBLOG

the twin cities / friday / 1639

just finished soundcheck. my shadow x 100. it's not the easiest song to play...

yesterday was a stopover in lincoln, nebraska - our second stopover day there (last was a couple of years ago). i went to the university bookstore to buy a snowglobe (and some cornhuskers merchandise for some american pals back home). jesse and i had a nice healthy lunch in the coffee shop - and a really good coffee (on P between 13th and 14th, i think). we have been to the cinema both times we've been here - spiderman 3 last time (not the best film ever); star trek this time - much better! both starring kirsten dunst, coincidentally. whoops, it's just been pointed out that it's actually the fabulous jennifer morrison (star of house - sorry ms morrison!)... tom bought me the best popcorn ever, and then helped me eat it. i think it had about a pint of liquid butter poured over it, so if we have heart attacks onstage tonight you will know why. rob had scoped out the railway yard, so we went down there to take some photos, then met the others for pizza at yia yias (who have an amazing selection of beer), then went to see local guy marc thornton (http://www.myspace.com/markthorntonmusic) play at the zoo bar - i really enjoyed the set.

hit the bus and hit the road at midnight, and woke up here. looking forward to the show tonight - i remember the last time we played here - it's a great venue. should be fun!

look at this photo and tell me car design has improved...

ummm... does this look dodgy to you?

ok, i'm gonna upload a ton of pics of the lincoln depot. apologies in advance, but i just love the symmetry you get with all the straight lines. the sky was amazing too - just seems to be huge over here.
