El Paso helped us get back on the road.
I'm on the bus across from J-man and Corina. Their working on Corina's computer. Cuttz just woke up and is scrambling for whatever food and drink he can find. Graham, Free and Decora are sleeping while DJ H20 drives. We're officially in the desert. The heat is beating down and I'm trying to stay as hydrated possible. We're on our way to an event in Phoenix, Arizona after having spent a few days in El Paso. Originally we'd planned to perform in Juarez and then drive down to Chihuahua, Mejico. Due to extensive flooding caused by heavy rainfall in Juarez the event had to be canceled. In addition, we'd run out of money for food or gas. So inevitably we decided to do some fund raising in El Paso to help us get moving forward. Monica (our San Antonio, Hondo, Juarez and El Paso connection) hooked us up with a place to stay (her brother's house) some food and pretty much anything else we needed. With her help we were able to book a couple of last minute events (DJ H20 dance parties and short performance) that made us enough money to get back on the road. Local organic food shops donated some food too.
Our first event was at the Percolator in El Paso. There we hosted a dance party and short performance. As soon as we were done we headed to another venue called the Black Market. DJ H20 tore it up with both sets. He was even dancing in the DJ booth at both venues. Decora stood outside where he asked for donations for the DJ while we had a table set up inside selling CD's and accepting donations as well. Overall it was an amazing night and couple days that had us all coming together trying to make dinero to get us back on the road.
