Lame Drivers spent a bunch of days on the road this summer with our PDX pals the Woolen Men.\u00c2\u00a0We played at least one show every day, and took photos along the way\u00c2\u00a0of the bugs we saw, the slaw we ate, the couches we slept on, the bands we played with, the people we met, the vehicles we passed by on the road\u00c2\u00a0and on and on.<\/p>\n

We could not document everything. There are many moments that will only exist in our minds and in the stories we’ll have to tell you later.\u00c2\u00a0But thanks to my obsession with instagram (@therewasaguy<\/a>), Alex’s occasional\u00c2\u00a0flickr<\/a>-ing, and our super photographer friends like\u00c2\u00a0M. Elizabeth Hershey<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0(–>\u00c2\u00a0live pics from Bloomington below<\/a>), there are a bunch of photos. We’re posting them here as a time capsule to aid our own memories, and perhaps as entertainment for you. There is some partial nudity. We’ve got the\u00c2\u00a0West Coast (Aug 17-24) photos first, then East Coast (Jul 18-29), each in roughly chronological order…<\/p>\n
