Our van broke down last week in the Arizona desert and we had to get towed to Durango to rent to minivans to make our shows this weekend in CO. Since Sunday, we’ve been camped out back in Durango waiting for the van to get fixed and get back to the road. It sounds like it should be fixed by this afternoon, so we should be able to make the Norman, OK show at The Deli nearby Aidan’s hometown of OKC. In the meantime, its been a beautiful stop here in Colorado. Here’s just a little taste:
