After a day off recovering from the super-mega-blockbuster closing night concert by the planetarium, we boarded a bus for Cordoba. Upon embarking, we were fed much sugar, which rumors say were meant to cause a mass sugar crash, thereby putting us to sleep and shutting us for the bulk of the OVERNIGHT bus ride. We’re on a public bus, along with all the Danes and a bunch of strangers. There’s a Bernie Mac movie playing on several video screens throughout the bus, and also several BRIGHT FLUORESCENT LIGHTS that one hopes to god will be turned off in the not-too-distant future, although why would they do anything that would cause travel by autobus to be slightly less unpleasant? No, we’re in this for keeps: a long, interminable, bright, noisy, exhausting, soul-crushing, lengthy hell-ride that will last well into tomorrow. If we survive it, we’ll be in Cordoba, where we’re told we’ll be playing a couple concerts. We shall see, Gentle Reader. We shall see.
