Today we are at Kansas State University. I am sitting three floors down from the auditorium, listening to the new Radiohead album, which, by the way is amazing. Not much to write about today yet. I was on the bus returning emails for a few hours and other than that haven’t done much.

We had a few hospital runs this morning. Tommy, the tour merch guy came back reporting that within the next twenty-four hours he will pass a kidney stone. I’m sure he’s excited to focus on that for the next day. Also, Toni, David’s wife, hit her hand on a part of the bus and possibly broke her hand, but after further inspection it’s just some messed up tendons, but hurts no less, I’m sure.

I brought two pairs of shoes on this tour and one of the pairs is starting to smell pretty bad. If it weren’t that I were sharing a bus with eleven other rotten smelling guys I might get kicked off the bus.

Two more days and I see my family. Time to go see some Kansas.

    oh the ol’ bus smell…nothing like living in a metal box that recirculates the smell of 14 men for 30 days straight.

    Brody,

    Got to hang out with a friend of yours tonight. Cory. I worked the Compassion table with him tonight at the MercyMe concert. He’s a great guy and he told me to tell you hello.

    Awesome concert, I really like Phil’s vocals. I would love to hear him and Shane and Shane harmonize. Or JJ Heller. I would have stopped and said hi tonight but I read your earlier post on “The Awkward silence.” Just kidding! So glad you get to see your family soon, have a blessed tour,
    Shari

    Oh my that word, legit.
    I love that word because it sounds cool but it’s funny because legit is not legit itself. It is slang for legitimate which is the proper term.
    I was talking about this with my evil English teacher. But I’m supposed to be talking about Kansas, right?

    Uh did you eat some corn there?
