black lab
recent tour antics

Our first show with Cracker was at the Fox Theater in Boulder. On the way, we discovered that fireworks are very much legal in Wyoming. This is big deal for us because in California, it's illegal to even light up a cigarrette most places, forget about a bottle rocket. So, we pull into this fireworks supermarket and buy boxes of "No 5 Meteor Showers", "Johnny Reb", "American Pride Arsenal", "Black Cat" firecrackers, four 10" Nighthawk Missiles With Stars, a Sky Ranger rocket, "super bomb", "C-red chrysantymum with dragon tails" and "Flaming balls with report".

Paul: "It's a rocket. You just stand it up in a bottle and light it."

Bryan: "I just don't know where I'll do all these. I could light some up in your toilet but I don't think you'd be too happy about it."

Geoff: "We spent almost $400 between us. And we still haven't even gone through half of the stuff."

Michael: "You're aiming that right towards the street."

It's a 3000 square foot artillery store and Paul doesn't know where to start.
Geoff displays some of the loot outside...
..and Black Lab blows off steam with a Roman Candle war.
