Chromeo 8/10/08, Baltimore, MD

Today is the last show of our North American run, and we're doing the Virgin Festival in Baltimore.

Again, we're playing first, but today is in a dance tent, which is significantly different than a main stage. But whatever. It wasn't so bad, and it was packed, so it made for a good show. We hung around for most of the afternoon after the show. The backstage area was awesome and we all had some friends there, so it was good to relax for a bit and catch up with people we hadn't seen in a while.

In the early evening, around 6ish we decided to head out, and it turns out it's a good thing we left then. The normally 2 hour drive took 6 hours! It was bumper to bumper the entire way up the 95. It was ridiculous, we totally didn't expect that. It got long pretty fast when it became obvious that there was no end in sight. When we got in to town it was pretty relieving. It was also great to be done and out of the van. Now we have a real break for 9 days before we head over to Europe for a bit. Burn the van, death to U-Haul, bring the sleep.
