First and foremost, we wish to thank Dan Cleberg, or MEEPO as he's sometimes called, for lending his P.A. system to tonight's event. And even though we didn't name the tour after you, we're greatly appreciative of your generosity.

Tonight was the big kickoff to the North Dakota leg of our mini-tour; The Big Holy Spatula Tour 2001. It was in Anthony's parents' backyard right outside of Jamestown, ND. The crowd wasn't as big as we were expecting, but it's not size that matters. Dustin's parents and sister were among those present. Josh Trumbo and Paul Tebben drove from Fargo and opened for us with a few Kamikaze Snowmen songs.

We had a bass player tonight! Josh Trumbo who has jammed with Anthony and Dustin before joined in tonight's show as a fourth bug. His performance was great and we welcome him back.

The mosquitos were a little nasty and our OFF didn't seem to be working too well. We formed an alliance against them, though under Anthony's advice.

Tonight, we played in town where Tony's sister Wendy infamously robbed the Liquor Store. The song was requested tonight by Dustin's dad; former Senator Dale Marks.

"To the Next Episode" had some fun surprises tonight involving Beethoven and Mozart. I got a girlfriend A-it is summer, so let's go have a summer. Marjorie's hair is made of margerine? Wow, some cool stuff happened.

When we exited the stage, there was chanting and a demand for an encore. You know us...keep the public happy. So we played three hits; "Found My Boogie," "Bumblebee," and "Jumpstart My Rocket".

We're off to Bismarck in the morning for the next show on the Big Holy Spatula Tour 2001.
