What an AMAZING time we had on the road this past week. Four GREAT events in four days. I must say, the travel was grueling, but, in the end, we just might have had our 4 best events EVER.We started off the week in Atlanta with about 100 excited and passionate teachers. It was a great day - we laughed and learned a lot. From there we moved on to Charlotte, NC. Talk about Rock Star Teachers!! Wow! I'm so impressed with the quality of educators at that event!! After the Charlotte gig was when things got a little . . . well, interesting.
Our flight to St. Louis was delayed, which meant we missed our connecting flight to Nashville. So, after lots of looking, we finally found a car to rent and drove all night (yes, you read that right, ALL NIGHT) from St. Louis to Nashville. We made it there just in time to shower and set-up and had an amazing turn out with about 150 teachers.
Also, while in Nashville, we had a chance to see our new "merch" designs. Mike "Merch Monkey" Arnott brought our new shirts, and stickers, and window clings, and lanyards, and mugs all with the TLARS logo. This stuff is AWESOME!! See for yourself at The Rock Shop. (GREAT stocking stuffers!!)
After Nashville, we flew to Jacksonville. We arrived at the hotel just before 11pm. It was then that I knew for sure we were going to have a great show the next day. When we arrived, there were about a dozen teachers hanging out in the lobby already engaged in . . . "staff development", if ya know what I mean. ; )
In fact, the event turned out great. There were groups of teachers from all over the state. It was an amazing day and I made lots of new friends that I hope to see again soon when I go to speak at their schools.
Thanks to EVERYONE who made the week so INCREDIBLE & MEMORABLE. It was awesome!
Next up in December: Phoenix, AZ - San Diego, CA - Los Angeles, CA - Oakland, CA. See all of our Tour Dates HERE.
Rock on!
