We flew out of Montreal, Canada to go to sunny California for a few days, which included seeing the legendary Elysia at the equally legendary Chain Reaction alongside the homies in Rev3rent & In Which Divides Us. We were also invited to do the Garza Podcast, a surreal moment for us. Everything else during our trip though; a fever dream.
