The Latest

Tonight is our final night of shows here in Vietnam. I can't believe it's already here! It went by so quickly. This last week has flown by especially fast. The shows were great all week. Georges came and watched almost every single night, and luckily he was in a great mood so everything was alright. On Friday night the new band Xpress arrived and they all came up to watch us. We always put on a good show but we felt like we had to do even more that night just so these new guys could see what they need to do. Xpress is an El-live band as well so we've been taking them around and showing them everything. They are a 6 piece band like us except they have no keyboard player so they have 3 singers, two girls, one guy, a bass player, a guitar player and a drummer. They are all really nice and it's been so fun having more people around to hang out with. The two girl singers and the guitar player are all brand new so it's fun to hear about how they are liking everything so far.
After our show on Friday night we all went out to eat on the street and hang out. It was a fun time until we were standing waiting for a taxi and two guys on a motorbike drove past and ripped one of the new girl's purse off her neck. Luckily he dropped it and she got it back but she was in shock and she has a mark on her neck from them pulling it. I felt bad that that was one of her first experiences in Asia and we all told her that doesn't happen often. It never happened to any of us and I still can't believe it happened. But at least now she'll be more careful.
So back to tonight, Xpress is going to come up and watch us again for our final night, so we have to rock it! After tonight we still don't really know what's happening. We still have no idea when we are flying out of here because our Visas are still processing or something. So at least we get a nice little break for a bit. I'll keep you updated on what's happening! Happy Sunday everyone.
