Acetone's 1st national tour in '93 opening for label mates Verve.
The three of us cruised in a rented Cadillac and actually had a 'crew'in a combi with the mass 3 piece's gear. This ended up being the way ta go cuz it gave us the freedom to hit many stops the others wanted no part of.( Mid west thrifts, stupid tourist sites, famous rib joints etc.)
Getting to New Orleans early we jumped all over Bo Diddley's sound check where Mark's
main man signed his classic Gretsch 'Astro Jet'.
One week later in Columbus, Ohio all guitars were stolen on the one night they were'nt
brought into the rooms.
Much more retardation to come from this certain 'crew'.
