As we gear up for another cycle, this time with two kids instead of one, I'm finally uploading all the old videos. There are some from almost 2 years ago on tour with Magnolia. Watching all of these, for me, is a reminder that touring can be boring unless you have your child along to video. And, it also reminds me that pretty soon our lives will be consumed with snipets simlar to these:
Touring with band and child 06, memories...
On a long drive to Coachella our sound guy pulled out a Rapmaster, a fine 80's rap-along machine, and gave it to Magnolia when we had all reached our limit of ideas to occupy a toddler.
Mags, whom I do not deprive of dolls, discovers a new "baby" otherwise known as a sweet potato doggie named Ryan. She slept with it for a few days. It does kind of look like a baby-of a manitee maybe.
Our daughter had a buddy when we toured with Starlight Mints and "How to Tour with Kids" was created (and so were a few hundred nonsense songs).
'm really looking forward to the most in this upcomming year of touring...soundchecks.
