8/27/07 CSU Fresno (Fresno, Ca)

Ahhhh.....school is session. We performed in The Pit, a stage area in the middle of the Fresno State campus on the first day of classes during lunch. As usual they provided us with 2 vocal mics with huge bright orange foam condom looking covers. They are called wind screens and are supposed to be used by news reporters in an area of high wind. The screens cut down the wind noise. For some reason, they always give us these nasty mics with orange covers on them. That means the spit from everyone whos ever uttered a word into that mic has festered and germinated in that foam. I tried to take it off buts its locked down with a plastic strip. It was a fun gig though. Its always cool to people watch from the stage. You can always tell the new students because they dress up like they're going to a club for their morning math class. Then you have the 3rd yr. chicks that used to be hot rolling out of bed in their Ambercrombie sweat shorts, highlighted hair and sandals. And my favorite.....the frat guys. Handing out flyers like PETA at a Michael Vick hearing, to rush. I still don't know what the hell that even means. We had a good number of people gather to check out the set. Lots of people knew the words, which is a really cool feeling. We had to change the words on a few songs to make it appropriate for college kids who probably are doing beer bongs upside down this morning.
