August 15, 2000:

Never a dull moment here in Gainesville. Played at a place called common grounds. Great crowd, great sound. Until the cops pulled the plug about 25 minutes into the set. Apparently we were much louder than most bands that play there. The fuzz said they could hear us half a mile away and this was in a noisy semi downtown district. Damn! We were gonna ignore them but then they started swing their handcuffs in the air at us, so like the good law abiding citizens we are we just cussed em out under our breath and packed it in. The audience was quite pissed off and I was hoping they would riot but I guess they were good law abiding citizens too.

MY GOD! We are all sheep! Oh the shame of it all. So we had a big pool party back at the apartments we were staying at and that was pretty fun until voices started being raised in anger and bottles were getting smashed to be used as weapons and thats about the time we thought we should go catch up on some much needed sleep. I like Gainesville.
