More Reminiscing on the Tour

Latin Reminisces   


    Being back from tour feels weird every now and then. On tour one wakes up in a different place with different people almost everyday. Something new is seen constantly and distinct words and thoughts enter ones ear on an ever increasing basis. Here at home base...things aren't like that. The same faces are seen and similar thoughts and opinions prevail. The excitement of uncertainty is quelled by this regularity of everyday scenarios. The excitement of not knowing who I'll meet or what I'll do 24 hours a day is what I'll miss the most. Interestingly, the uncertainty of our daily lives on tour is one of the things that often disturbed me the most. Not knowing when, where or how we'd pay for food, gas or other necessities on certain days made my brain want to leap out of it's skull. Sleeping arrangements didn't bother me much because I always knew that our home away from home was there (our Tour Bus). Showers was also a major concern of mine but we always found a way to get showers, food and anything else we needed. This fact left me with the knowledge of something we're reminded of on each and every tour we do. As long as we're doing what we believe in... we will somehow be o.k. Now if I could just find a way to incorporate that into the everyday regularities of life ll.
     I strive each and every day to learn something new that I can pass down to others. Each day on tour was no different and the experiences I gained from being on the Front Lines tour will inevitably now be passed on to the youth I work with and the peoples I perform for. For the ability to do so I thank all of you that helped the Front Lines Tour get on its way and those of you that helped keep it going till the very last moment.

Peace, Paz, Salaam and once again THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.
