i'll be putting up left over t-shirts / longsleeves / crewnecks from the tour in the next week or so on this blog, myspace, b9, and various other messageboards across the informational superhighway of interwebs.
keep your ear to the ground.

The end is here...
Our east coast invasion with Skin Like Iron has ended, prematurely, in my own opinion. If we all didn't have to get back to work/school I wouldn't have cared if we stayed on tour for another month or two. A big thank you to SLI for being our road buddies (Every Pressure tour should be with them from now on), another gigantic thank you to Brian McBrian Cool III for filling in on drums and being the best dude (Check out his band Sojourner), thank you to our road photographer and sudoku pro Vanessa (xVanx photography), and last but not least to Steve for driving us around and putting up with us for the past week.
The tour consisted of the following dates:
4/12 - Redwood City, Ca
4/14 - Richmond, Va.
4/15 - Doylestown, Pa.
4/16 - Baltimore, Md.
4/17 - New Brunswick, Nj.
4/18 - Brooklyn, Ny.
4/19 - Boston, Ma.
4/20 - Providence, Ri.
All of the shows were more than awesome, even the one we didn't get to play (Sorry Max). Shoutouts to the Banner, Swamp Thing, COA, Heathen, Pellinore, Surroundings, The Mongoloids, The Fire Still Burns, New Lows, Naysayer, Trash Talk, Sabertooth Zombie, Laced Joint, Glue, Mother of Mercy, Slave, Force Fed, Alarmed, Turncoat, Product of Waste, Pitfall, and there might be one or two more but my memory isn't what it used to be... Without those bands, all of our hard giggin' wouldn't have been the same.
Now that all the thanks are out of the way, here is my short recap of tour. I ate some pizza, drank some yuengling, ate at the grease trucks, ate more pizza, drank some more, hungout and played some shows on the way. Pressure should do this more often. I'll let someone else post about this shit now, I'm terrible at blogging.

Brooklyn
Joe hates new York but he loses because of the sheer amount of gorgeous broads and the bomb pizza.
re-cap aka read the post below first
You dudes suck at blogging, everyone has teh internetz on their phones but still no updates? Come on. Alright, first of waffle house is the shit and I wish we had them in Cali. Our show in Richmond was fun, thanks to all the dudes in swamp thing for lending us gear and in general just being solid dudes. Heathen killed it, 3 guitars and full stacks is sick. The first few days we stayed in Baltimore at Steven's new house which has been nice since its easy to leave all the bags at one spot. Finding clean places to stay with legit bathrooms is more tricky than it sounds on tour. There's a few dive bars around the corner where we hung out, blasted some sweet jams and shot darts (open challenge to anyone reading this to a game of cricket.) Brian manned up and got a kiss from the haggard old woman running the bar.
The next day was o'doylestown, pa which was hella nice and looked like main street Disneyland. We met up with the sli dudes and they killed it. Josh had technical difficulties and only played like two songs. Apparently we're too heavy for this coast.
Day after that was charm city art space. We hung out at the mall while butcher tried to fix his laptop. Joe and I tried to find an orange julius since that shit doesnt exist anymore in Cali but apparently it was closed or something. Saw the hottest girl in Baltimore working at the abercrombie store and tried to convince the girl at the coffee shop to go to the show, it didnt happen. Charm city art space is sweet, good kids, free pizza and a set without equipment fucking up - score.
That pretty much brings us up to date, eat shit.

4/18
We're currently driving into nyc, blasting sheer terror and pounding a grip of redbull (thanks jackie.) We're going to kick it in the city for awhile , which means eating as much legit pizza as humanly possible, before heading over to 538 Johnson for the show. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that our gear doesnt crap out again, my mesa dual rec really hates touring. Last nights show was a great time, the banner dudes and jersey kids were awesome and grease trucks are out of this world. Definitely saw some authentic nj guidos as well which was just icing on the cake. On a side note what's with rutgers having an insane ratio of gorgeous girls? The show tonight should be fun, its our first day with coa and we're stoked.
