Tour Plan

This is my band's blog. Right now, we are only a small garage band, and we don't really have any special plans to change that. Except maybe Kyle. He's obsessed with fame. Anyway, we are a tight little group of friends. The members are, Aria(me! I'm the singer and leader of the band), Bryinda(she's our bass guitarist), Tiatra(she's the lead guitarist), Coleton (he's our drummer), and Kyle(he's our keyboardist). It's not a very big band, but we still have fun. We are all 18 years old, or soon to turn 18, except for Kyle. He is 19 years old. Kyle and Coleton are brothers. Well, they are only step brothers, but it's just easier to call them brothers.
We are planning a band tour right now. We have been playing together for four years, but we haven't gone anywhere because we couldn't get the money. Really we just want to see the rest of the U.S.A., but we thought that it would be easier to earn money along the way by playing at our stops. My grandpa wrote in his will, that I get 50% of his money when I turn 18, and that the rest goes to my parents. I'm turning 18 on June 26th, and we are going to use that money for the start of our tour. I'm still not quite sure how much money I will get, but I suppose I'll find that out on my birthday!
We are going to see the capitals of some of the states on our tour. We won't get to see all of them because that would cost too much money and take up too much of our time. Our plan is still kind of sketchy, but so far we are planning to start from Marysville, WA and hit Salem OR, Sacramento CA, Carson City NV, Salt Lake City UT, Phoenix AR, Santa Fe NM, Austin TX, Baton Rouge LA, Jackson MS, Montgomery AL, Tallahassee FL, Atlanta GA, Nashville TN, Columbia SC, Raleigh NC, Richmond VA, Washington D.C. VA, Annapolis MD, Harrisburg PA, Hartford CT, Providence RI, Boston MA, Concord NH, Augusta ME, Montpelier VT, Albany NY, Columbus OH, Lansing MI, Indianapolis IN, Springfield IL, Madison WI, St. Paul MN, Pierre SD, Bismark ND, Helena MT, and then arrive back home in Marysville. Quite a tour huh?
I am very excited to go on the tour and see the sights. I plan to bring my camera so that I can take pictures of everything. I really like photography. Bryinda is excited, but she is more calm about it. I think mostly she just thinks it will be cool to go on a real band tour. Tiatra is very excited. Today she went out and bought us all matching costumes... She obviously loves to shop. She won't show them to us yet. She says that they are a suprise. I think Coleton has peeked already. Coleton has been writing songs like crazy to get us ready for the tour. He is our song writer, and a very smart one at that. He can fit almost any word into the song and still make it sound fairly decent. At least, I think so. Kyle is also pretty excited about this, but mostly because he thinks that he is going to get his chance at fame. The rest of us don't really care much though, we just want to have fun!
I think I hear the phone ringing. That's probably my friends calling for the next band practice. We have been practicing nonstop for the past few weeks, so I don't know when I will get time to write again. Anyway, I had better go answer it.
