Detroit Rock City? More like Detroit More Murders Than Baltimore City... City

Asbestos's show at Ronny's Bar in Chicago was called "The best Asbestos concert to ever take place in Chicago" (Steve "I know a lot about music" Richardson of the Chicago Tribune). After driving all day through states like Indiana, the self proclaimed "Crossroads of America" (No one comes to our state with a reason other than traveling to a neighboring state) we were quite amazed at our playing as well. In fact, leg cramps, sleep deprivation, Bobby eating all of our food, and smell aside, the road is treating us quite [well].

After camping in a rest area, we began our voyage to Muskegon to visit a friend, stopping in Grand Rapids to buy flannel, and get $16 for can return. We slept in the sketchiest (least expensive, most likely to give STDs through osmosis) motel we could find and headed to Detroit. We camped with Randy, a local who frequents Brighton Park and taught us to make things with glass bottles and fire.

Since this may be our last post (many people we've talked to think we will be robbed or die in Detroit) we will leave you with Erik's list of traveled states from most good to least good:

1. California
2. Maryland, Virginia
4. Georgia
5. Massachusetts, Illinois, Michigan
8. Florida
9. Indiana, Maine
11. Ohio, Connecticut, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Vermont, New Hampshire
15. New York
16. South Carolina
17. New Jersey
18. West Virginia
19. Pennsylvania
20. Delaware

Bobby just ate a Big Mac in under 10 seconds
