Listen, man, I don't like being in cool towns with lots to do when shit is going down. I want all the "fun" stuff to be over. Let me do my own thing, you know?

Eh. Not really. We spent a few days there before and after the 2018 Missoula show. Lots of Mormon related tours and sites. There’s an IKEA
I'm more thinking of hiking up in the mountains and a couple hours outside of SLC, but I'd be travelling for work so I'd have to stay based in the city. Looks like there's a decent amount of stuff to do in the city though.
Didn’t LV nearly die doing this?

I’m sitting dying in Dublin and it’s 3c and pissing rain and himself in Thailand sitting in a beach having joints and beer.
I could’ve gone had I not been so sick.
Fuck my life.
