It’s been one week since the tour of a lifetime came to a close, and I still feel like I haven’t quite assimilated back into regular society. What’s this oversized, cushy, clean rectangle I’ve been sleeping on every night? Where’s my smelly sleeping bag and tiny camping pillow? It’s a little bizarre and oddly unsettling not driving 500 miles everyday, but we’re all coping.
We finished the tour strong by packing New Orleans’ Neutral Ground Coffeehouse to the brim. Afterwards, we spent the final night at the greatest imaginable place — the one and only DeWitt Wonderland. It was like coming home as we drove onto the storied grounds. All kinds of good times ensued, and when we woke up, it was time to hop in the van one last time for one more haul…back to Memphis.
It was a bittersweet moment as Pancho took the exit onto Madison Avenue, marking the end of our life-changing 18-day trek. Of course it was great to be back home in Memphis, yet sad to be done with one of the greatest tours in Star & Micey history.
A few final stats on the tour —
Miles driven: 5,227
Shows played: 14
States visited: 9
Memories made: Uncountable
It has been an absolute honor, privilege, and delight to have been in the trenches with Star & Micey for the past three weeks. Each day strengthened my faith in this exceptional band. The road is hard, but we conquered it, ready for more. The golden age of Star & Micey is swiftly approaching, and I’m loving every minute of the ride.
Thank you all so much for reading the blog and sending us your love. We appreciate every single last one of you, and couldn’t do any of this without your support.
Until next time…swirl on.
