today was the first of two days in memphis.we were supposed to have a radio spot earlier in the afternoon, so we left really early in the morning, only to get almost there and get a call that it was canceled. so....
we DID however, perform the live video session at Sun Studios. That, my friends, was an experience. 
We went on the tour earlier in the day, and i learned so much about the intense history of the place. 
Cash, Elvis, Jerry Lee Louis and tons of other classic artists all were either discovered by Sun, or made it big with Sun Records. After getting the gear all set up, it was overwhelming to look around the room and just see so many of our heroes that recorded their classic hits in the exact places we were set up to jam in. 
sometimes during a song, i'd open my eyes and see the pictures of elvis
and johnny cash staring me right in the face, and it was almost distracting. really amazing experience. it hasn't even completely 
set in yet, i don't think.
when we got done recording, we started loading gear and across the street a huge group of 'thugs' started messing around, and the cops came and broke it up.
my arm is doing better.
gotta lot of pics for todays blog.

OH MY WORD I'M SOOO FREAKIN' JEALOUS RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!! Sweet pics man.
Sun Studios? That had to be awesome. You should have called me when you ran out of gas in Nephi, but I may have been at work. Keep hanging in there and rocking the free world.
