Greetings Earthlings!
It's been a fun start to 2012 for us in the land of ARTTM. As you may know, we went overseas for a month and had a great time. Since returning, we went to Nashville to finish our record.

These are the two wizards behind the boards in charge of making us sound good! Mark Bright, our producer, and Todd Tidwell, our engineer. I miss these guys already.

And here's Nick going over harmonies with our pal Liz who was kind enough to lend us her vocal talents.

This was too funny to not include.

This is Nick bouncing around on top of the van after our college show in Kearney, Nebraska.

One of the coolest things about this tour is Nick from AAR's dog, Dexter. He makes everybody smile daily. And as you can see, he's smart about keeping his ears in tact.

Speaking of awesome dogs, we got to spend the last couple nights in Chicago with our two best pals, Johnny and Charlie Minardi. Here is Charlie looking adorable as always, probably begging for table scraps at our Sunday BBQ.

And another one of my favorite things about Chicago; haircuts! Our friends Gil, Marco, and Craig from Backstage Cuts take care of us every time we're in town. They are truly the best in the business as well as being good friends. This particular cut was extra important because we have a photo shoot coming up, the results of which are going to be around for a long time! Luckily they nailed it as always and made us all look cooler than we actually are.
Well thanks for tuning in to my Snoop Bloggy Blog yet again. I will be sure to post another before the end of this tour, as we have a lot of fun shows and cities ahead of us. Have a great day!
Love,
Andrew
