Charlotte, NC 7/09

Arrived in Charlotte around 7 last night. The airline lost my little red case full of cables, stomp boxes and miscellaneous tools. I knew they'd lose it when I booked the flight. In my heart, I've always known they'd lose it.
We're staying with friends who have a beautiful condo with a nice view of downtown Charlotte, a comfortable bed, and a TV in every room. Susan cooked a delicious dinner last night, and we watched the Tour de France. So far it doesn't feel much like a rock band on tour- just a weekend trip to visit some friends.
We'll play Raleigh tonight, and the airline called late last night to say they've got my case. Everything's coming together quite nicely.
