Hahah no. Making fairly good money at the moment and not having to pay much in terms of bills etc. helps out.
This one though is not a fly out, a couple people I know want to drive out to portland (since we know another guy up there with a house to stay at who wants us to come up) for that show. From there, they would go home, and I would greyhound down to SF the next day, since I got tickets waiting for me for that show, might as well not waste someones generosity. Then I'd fly home the next morning.
Would cost about 250 bucks for the entire trip, from what I gathered.
I'd would seriously love to venture back up to Eastern Canada. We'll see if there's any good shows that coincidence in Toronto/Montreal the week of Heathen Crusade.
Speaking of which, I better see you in Minnesota!!!
my band's music is at www.myspace.com/bardcore but the quality there is kinda meh...we have some better songs now too.
i also want to mention that the part at the 2:15 mark in merrimack "melancholia balneam diaboli (of acedia and her daughters)", right where he screams SATAAANNNNN, that part right there is so fucking black metal.
