Konbanwa bitches!

Rain is so soothing...the constant pitter-patter...the rumbling thunder...I'm enjoying this...the Mets just won 9-1 against the Cardinals...and now the pleasant, cooling rain...I need this...who's got it better than me...

I almost passed out this morning from heat exhaustion...and maybe a little dehydration... everything went fuzzy for a second and I had to lay down...it wasn't fun...but I chugged some water, took a multi-vitimen and watched the Mets...sometimes I forget to drink enough water and I drink tons of coffee...not a good combo....its delicious...but not good for me...

And today Chris is at Warped tour with his cousin, so no band practice...which is timed perfectly bc the Go Gettaz have a game today...2nd round of the playoffs...Let's! Go! Getta! Haha wish us
luck...we're trying to take home another trophy!

"A new page"

So...its been a while..I thought I'd make ya'll want more...ya
know...i've been clownin...you want more? I don't care either way...I'm
gonna keep writing...I won't go away...I've been spending some time off
tour...but we're getting ready to head back out to see your pretty lil
faces...that's correct...Danny Fitz thinks your all pretty...every last
one of you...don't ever change...

I've been spending my time watching my NY Mets come back and take first
place I their division...and then lose it last night to the Fighting
Phillies of Philadelphia....I hate them b-t-dubbs...I don't hate Philly
but u can see the rivalry..can't you? So yea first place...oh! And
speaking of first place...my softball team, the Finnegan's "Go Gettaz"
took first in our co-ed softball league...with a record of 10-2...almost
unstoppable...I missed a bunch of games due to touring but its been
awesome having some time to go all out and hit some balls and shag some
flies...I get friggin dirty...I like to dive...that's how I roll...just
ask the Lil Drive Bys...they came to a couple games last year...

Hmm...so yes...mets and Go Gettaz...and what else have I been up to?
I've been playing Halo3 and Rockband...straight dorkin it up with my
homies...we actually shut down a bar playin rockband...its was
awesome...we had like a crowd of people watchin us shred...I was playin
drums of course...haha Jason 'shredzilla' DiBene on the bass and Ken
'Morello' Dogrun on the 6-string...we were rockin with the owner Steve
O. And some other friends...but we got the band back together
haha...good time...

I'm goin to the Met game tonight...hopefully to see then gain their spot
in first place...ill be going with Boobie, and my friend Lindsay and her
friend Jenna who is a HUGE Met fan...so it should be fun...if the
weather holds up...we're supose to get a crazy storm and it doesn't look
good for us...

Lets go Mets!
M-E-T-S..mets! mets! mets!

Mikey Avalanche stole my life...part 1

Its 5:52AM...I drove for about 3 hours until 3:45...I couldn't keep my eyes open so I thought it best to put Chris behind the wheel...he slept through my shift...not "well-rested" but rested none-the-less...we had a long day earlier...4 hour drive and a show in Cinncinati...so we were
pretty beat from the start...oh yea...we decided to drive all the way home straight after our last show with the Pink Spiders...could be a stupid idea...but we all really wanted to get home so we stuck to our guns...

My eyes are dry, my throat sore...its rainy and humid and cold in Western Pennsylvania...Pearl Jam is blasting to help aide Chris' energy level...I need a fix of coffee if I'm gonna stay awake any longer to function...or maybe ill take a nap...only six hours left...only 5 hours and 59 mins left now...let's stop to get a snack and use the little boys room...I recon that a good idea...

Oh and Mikey Avalanche told me that I inspired him to start a blog of his own...once I get his web address ill post it...I know he's got a fun mind...

"With every word you say, say something sweet..."

We play chi-town last night and in the bar I watched a lil bit of the Cubbies/Black Sox game...saw chitown fans going nuts...I guess it was the same back in NY with my Mets and those damn Yankees...I hear it was all or nothing as the Mets destroyed the Jenkees 15-6 I think it was in
the first game of the double header and then got shredded in the second game, getting shutout....ah well...ya win some and ya lose some..but this season the Mets beat the Yankees more times...we rock...even though we're suckin up this season...

So anyways...the show was awesome...a lot of peeps came out to support...I popped a string in the last song of our set and was saved by Matt Friction who tossed me up a new guitar in time to finish out the song flawlessly...haha we also played with this band from Texas called
'Girl in a Coma'...awesome chicks...and they rock...check them out for sure...tell em Fitz from Drive By sent you...

Now we drive to Detroit Rock City...its gonna be a good show...I can feel it...Detroit is always fun for us...a lot of friends come out and we might even go out on our boy Big Dave's Pirate ship...for real...we rock eye patches and swords and swash the buckle and swab the deck and maroon shifty pirates and make em walk the plank matey and ish...ya know...
...danny fitz...

Some say...you only hear what you want to...

We walked into Wendys earlier...and everyone customer stopped what they were doing and stared at us...we were so not wanted...they were hiding their kids from us as if we were gonna "kill them and eat them alive"...which is stupid bc its not possible...at all...once u kill
someone...how do u eat them alive...they're thoughts were dumb...but we had a good laugh and threw out some "ill kill you and eat you alive" looks just to entertain their dumb thoughts...and I went outside and did some pushups..bc that's my thing now...everytime we stop I do
pushups...I was on 10 and now I do 20...but that's 20 everytime we stop...and Jae's little bladder keeps me workin hard...haha aahhh...Pushups...working my way up to 500 a day...so I can beat jae up haha...I'm only on 200 a day now...but I'm showing progress and I will
beat Jae up...nah Jae's kinda like my personal trainer...he's a good push to eat healthy and work out with the downtime we have on tour...

I ordered a Venti French Vanilla Iced Coffee from Starbucks...and I drank it and it was deliciously satisfying...so of course I went to get a refill and was stoked on the 55 cent refill policy they have...so I was like "Hell Yea" drop another Venti on me...she of course messed up
and gave me what Jae had ordered earlier...5 shots of esspresso on ice...lets just say I was all sorts of tweaked on esspresso shots...and I quickly crashed and napped for a bit...no one should ever have that much energy...its a ridiculous amount of energy...don't do it...seriously...don't be stupid...ok fine try it...and let me know if you can hang...

I miss Mikey Avalanche...its a band thing to meet dudes in bands and use their first name and dominant band name as their last name...Mikey from I Am the Avalanche, is just to long...when I get home we're chillin and jammin on some folk songs...

I also have some movie, websites and book ideas that I'm workin on at the present...I cant let the cat out of the bag just yet bc I don't want ya'll stealin my thunder...but lets just say, "poop", "creepy dudes on swingsets" and a "movie about me, and my friends" are all in the works...

Time after time we drive through Gary, Indiana...and everytime I sing the song...if you don't know "the song" look it up... from 'the Music Man'...but we're here and I'm gonna complain about the mammoth stench that leaks through our vents as we stroll on through...its pretty damn gross...

Seacrest-Out!

Ok...so last night we were drivin back to the hotel from Buffalo Wild Wings where we demolitians 62 wings...and if you know B-dubs-dubs(BWW)'s wings, they're not skimpy wings...we had buffalo, asian zinger and Jerked...so good...ok, so on the way back we get a call from a friend of
ours saying that we were just on E! Entertainment Television...Ryan Seacest was introducing us and they played our video in the back...we didn't know if we should believe it...no because we think she's a liar but it just seemed weird to us...so we get back tothe room and try to
figure out the next time they'll rerun it...of course it was 3 AM, I was too tired so I passed out and was woken up by jae jumpin on my bed like a little school girl readying up for a pillowfight with her mates...talking all this nonsensical jibjab about how Ryan Seacrest was
playin air guitar to our song Boring...of course I told him to go away and I waited til noon to catch Seacrest shredding an airguitar saying, "that's Drive By with Boring and then they cut to the next segment...I'm pretty sure it went "the Kardashian's" than Drive By...

Its now time for waffle house...we're takin a walk there to get a little excercise after all them wings...late!
