On to DC/Virginiaa

So we went to the land of washington, lincoln, quick pita, east-west grill, and an african american president.

everything couldn't be smoother... our venue WENT OUT OF BUSINESS (um ok...), our lead singer, Raef, decided to lose is voice a day before (awesome)... umm... and i was having a bad hat day...

oh man, but did things come together.... like a superhero, latifah decides to come up, gaith adhami joins us for the first time and really kills it on the mic, the campbell family does a local opening act (very cute.. 9 year old poet)..

then after intermission, in dramatic fashion, like a wounded soldier, raef arises from the shadows (think mel gibson in the last scene from braveheart...FREEDOOMM) and does a few songs, including memorable performances of viva la vida, redemption song, and i'm yours with the entire crowd make up for his weakened voice...

what a show :)

Tampa, Orlando, Miami

what an amazing weekend! "hitchhiking" in miami before our tampa show, throwing ferrero rocher at the audience, meeting the coolest ppl, orlando is official our best show ever...

oh and raef ended all the sets for the first time with "somewhere over the rainbow/what a wonderful world"

and we added a bunch of new songs for the first time... man in the mirror, the riddle.. etc.

had one of the most intense taboo and mafia games after
