I'm starting in Montreal, and I'm ending up in San Diego.  And I'm
driving.  And that's really the extent of my plans so far.  :-)  And if
I get bored with driving (Road Movie! Road Movie!), I'll fly to the
West Coast.

It'd be great to meat up with people...  I'll be hooked up for email
most of the way, I think...

The last time one of my colleagues drove to the West Coast through

Gnuish animal)!

I'm a vegetarian, so you'd have to count me out.

Work it carefully, and you could probably find someone to give you a
beer at each stop.  I'll throw in for the Sacramento area in
California if you head down interstate 5 to get to San Diego.

If you take the scenic route along the coast of CA, you will come
through my town  Santa Barbara  (100 miles north of Los Angeles)
I will not only sponser the beer but will happily get you sloppy
drunk.  Making the rest of your tour a nightmare of safety hazards.

But they also have a local coffee grinding place where you can lay in
a supply of really powerfull French Roast.

Definitely... will you be doing stadium gigs, or a more intimate set of
club appearances? :)

Hmmm... I could road-trip up to toronto pretty easily... planning on
stopping there?  I can stop and pick anybody along the way from southern
indiana as well. :)  Or if you want to stop in chicago we could probably
find a few people.

I'd say drive all the way across in canada, pick up I5 in Victoria, BC, and
head south from there, picking up highway 101 in southern washington.
Beautiful drive that direction.

I could race you across the US if I have a business trip to seattle about
that time. :)

Yay, 101! If you are coming through Sonoma County, let me know. Jamie
Zawinski is opening his club in SF at July 13th (www.dnalounge.com),
so that might be worth checking out too.

Mostly club appearances so far.  :-)

I've done some more planning now, and I think that Chicago would be a
very nice place to meet.  (Or meat.)  I'll probably be arriving in
Chicago sometime early next week -- Monday or Tuesday?  Something like
that...

When will you know for sure?  I can definitely take a day or two off and
road trip up there for beer and pizza.  Gotta have an Unos pizza while you
are in town. :)

Anyone else in the chicago area?

Hi, William.  Strange.  I well see your X-Faces, but really do not recognise
you.  Did you get the hair different, or what?  Is it the glasses? :-)

P.S. - Not that my own X-Faces is very resembling either, by the way... :-)
