today is actual work day, the guys are at the club setting up right now. We didn't bring much of our equipment and using what they have here, kind of like starting all over again when the trailer got robbed. But we will make it, or they will. I may just run the lights from the side of the stage, feel like I need to do something.

Earlier we met with 2nd in command here, Col. Erickson. All the military people are so nice and fairly informal although you can tell they take their jobs very seriously. Thule is pretty much the first line of intelligence and defense for protecting the US against a lot of the world, it is quite overwhelming what they do here.

Write back tomorrow after the first show, Noah and Philip both brought cameras so if I can figure out how to upload pictures to these network computers I'll post some.

And yes, it's completely dark over here all the time.

And again, you guys sure love some Oregon Trail...
