drag

welcome back my friends
to the show that never ends
we're so glad you could attend
step inside, step inside

yes
the beat goes on
and the summer heat
is on
and I have two days before I
pack a bag and hit the road again

makes it hard to hold down
the fort sometimes

I'm not the most organized
person in the world and constant
movement and random locations
don't help that in the least

but I do see a ton of random events

I arrived at the venue in midland
a little early and stood outside
watching the quarter mile drag races

the end of the sprint
ended across the street from
the club's parking lot

I stood there for a while
watching the cars run

kind of enjoyable really

after the show,
I was standing outside talking
to some of the dudes from the
opening band

and I saw a drag car
come flying by

his brakes had failed
and his little parachute didn't
do as much to stop him as
the chain link fence that mangled
his car

me and the dudes took off
sprinting towards the car to
see if we could pull him out

and who doesn't want
three guitar players as the first
to arrive on an accident scene?

the driver was fine
but the car was upside down
in the fence and demolished

pretty wicked thing to watch

hey,
thanks san angelo

that was the coolest gig
I've ever had in that town

thanks for coming out and listening

midland was cool too,
especially with the drag crash

shout out to rayford and the mystery fest...
