I want to be a robot

So I've been trying to figure out what to be for halloween. And at first I really wanted to find a costume that the whole band could dress as together. (Like, we thought we could dress up as the Academy and have Victoria be William). But now everyone is just doing their own thing, and I'm the only idiot stuck without a costume. And I couldn't figure out what I wanted to be, but now I finally decided that I want to be a robot. And I want a really crappy looking costume (a la Flight of The Conchords' "The Humans Are Dead"). But the problem is that I don't have time to build myself that costume since I'm already on tour. So I figured I'd send out a bulletin and offer anyone who is coming to either the Lancaster or Poughkeepsie shows the following deal: if you have a robot costume laying around, or if you put one together, I will trade you all the merch you want, and maybe teach you some of my white hot moves. ;) No big deal--no pressure--just thought I'd thrown it out there. ;) Oh yeah! Also, people always ask us what kind of presents we like to get, and I've got one answer: food. Especially on this tour; since we were added last minute we don't get any food from the venues, so if your mom makes some sweet veggie lasagna and you have some left over, feel free to bring it to us. Not for nothing, but I also love taco bell. So if you work there, hook us up! Get me that cheesey gordita crunch girl! ;)
Xo always

So, thanks to Gabe, I'm really excited about my holiday and the trip down to St. Louis. It's going to be amazing.

The itinerary is as follows, so far:

21 November, Wednesday: Julie flies in from Waterford, arrives c.10.30pm; I get hair bleached and re-dyed (same as now, but my roots will be fucked)he - my hairdresser is calling me from the airport to tell me she's back in the UK for this, and to set off. Helene wins.
22 November, Thursday: Leave house c.7.45am to reach Heathrow for 9.00am. Fly at 12.15pm. Arrive in Chicago around 3.00pm - on Thanksgiving (right?)! Will anything be open?
23 November, Friday: Drive down to St. Louis (five hours, according to Google), hopefully arriving around 1-2pm. See Cobra Starship/The Academy Is... show. Stay at motel just outside town.
24 November, Saturday: Drive back to Chicago. See the last date of Sleeping With Giants. Aftershow? We have no clue.
25 November, Sunday: No plans for day; getting out tattoos by Jay Redden at The Tattoo Factory, at 10.30pm (I know, right?).
26 November, Monday: MY BIRTHDAY!! Plans only include dinner, so far.
27 November, Tuesday: Last full day in Chicago. Will probably involve shopping.
28 November, Wednesday: Fly home at 5.15pm.
29 November, Thursday: Arrive in London at 6.50am. Sleep. A lot.
30 November, Friday: Hang out.
1 December, Saturday: I can't remember whether this is when Julie flies home or not. But whatever. I'm back at work on the Monday.

If you would like to insert yourself in this intinerary, please let me know! XD At some point we might catch up with another friend over there, but I don't know when he'll be free.

During the holiday, we should both be taking our laptops so you can follow the trip on bandrdocanada, although it's obviously not Canada, this time.

In conclusion: Eeeeeeeeeee!!!1!!
