Drive By Check in From Their 'Wonderful Wonderful' Tour With My Chem: One for the Road

New Jersey rockers Drive By have been working hard on the road to support their latest release, A Delicate Situation, which hit stores earlier this month. The guys checked in with Buzznet the other day as part of Buzznet's new "One for the Road" series to let us know how the tour is going so far. [cut=Read on.]

Drive By, who admit to having written more than one "emo" song in their career, have a growing fan base that includes My Chem bassist Mikey Way. "If this band isn't gigantic by the end of the year, then there's no justice in the world," Way stated in a recent press release.

Portland is bouncing up and down

Hey everybody,

We are here in Portland, OR. Night 2 here and we are having a great time. Our record came out yesterday, show was great, the walls shook...literally...this place wobbles and bounces when bands play! We look forward to seeing you in Salt Lake and Denver coming up. If you havenâ�™t seen the video for "Boring" yet, go to buzznet.com and watch..then "buzz" the video. New pictures are up too! Check these things out please.

We have the same briefcase...

We just finished playing at the Zone in Bakersfield, Ca. It was cool..small show..kids were really cool. Theâ�¨first band went on and they were heavey, heavey metal...so we assumed it would be a weird show for us...but the kids were rad as hell! The dude that ran the show, Tim, was rad as well...Jae, Chris and I played a little frisbie in the back parking lot...we DID NOT roof the frisbie, which is what usually happens. We did accidentally toss it into a huge dumpster, however. We then made Jae jump â�¨into that dumpster to retrieve the frisbie...I didnâ�™t have my sidekick on me, or elseI would have some sweet pics...Iâ�™ll snap shots from now on, for sure... We're now driving back to our spot in LA now...its about an hour and a half until we get back, which is not so bad. Our tour manager, Jesse, is driving because I'm beat...so I'm probably going to just pass the "F" out...pardon my harsh letters... Oh!! I almost forgot!!! When I was warming up my voice with todd in the van before the show, I guess there were some "words" spoken by one of the dudes from one of the bands to some local kids who lived next to the â�¨venue. That band dude threw his drink at the little local skater kid and then punches were thrown and the band dude got beat down by three locals...I didn't see any of this go down...Jae did. I was told later by Jae, but I saw the band kid afterwards and his head was "F"ed up...pardon my letters again. But, hewas a trooper and played the show anyways...rock on!! ...danny fitz...

Everyone should meet a bigger version of themselves...it's surreal

Top O'the morning to ya! It's early, and we're now getting ready to head back to California for some shows...see ya there!!
Anyways, so yesterday was an eventful day...we woke up, played a show presented by 'Shirts for a Cure' (awesome foundation, definately check them out), I met this kid who was a bigger version of myself(not as goodlooking, but he was a close second), we ate some delicious IHOP(with horrible service), and we also did an interview with Macbeth...I even taught Todd about 'dunks'...

1. Shirts for a Cure show was sick...www.shirtsforacure.com...
2. I am now lil Fitz, bc i met Bigger Fitz at SXSW (i might make a shirt that says that )
3. Never eating at IHOP again (unless they give us free food)
4. Macbeth gear rocks!(www.macbethfootwear.com)
5. Todd got his school on about 'dunks'(big ass bright basketball sneaker lookin sneakers[worn with skin tight pants])
6. You just got your school on about 'dunks'

so we're hitting the road now, and I'm not gonna have internet until later...so for now, I'm gonna get me some grub because I'm starving...you should do the same...food is good...see you on the other side!
