The adventure is over. Two people started. Two paths were chosen. I returned home. George made it happen and got the big man job. This means there is one ready to travel awesome modified and proven van.
So if you are in the San Diego/ SoCal area, and are ready to start the next step in your life and really enjoy freedom then let us know. Asking price is $4000.
Modified back for living done. Engine tune up done 4000 miles ago, just had an oil change less than 1000 miles ago. Awesome sound system we put in. And its proven. Parked across the nation and never hassled once. contact ryan.navaroli@gmail.com for serious inquiries.
So it is on rare occasion that we head out to do something in San Diego. Other than are normal grocery store, library, and 24 hour fitness routine. The semi-routine weekend jaunts to Oceanside to hang with Josh and Jessica. However, a random glance into the paper last night and a reasonable cover charge has us heading up to Solona Beach for the highly entertaining Cody Chesnutt. I highly recommend checking out his only album, The Headphone Masterpiece for anyone who doesn’t know him, which is most of you I’m sure. Cody’s biggest claim to fame is one of his songs, “The Seed,” being rerecorded by The Roots with him singing, appropriately titled “The Seed 2.0.” Cody’s music is, as I believe he describes, neo-soul mixed with rock and roll a dash r&b and a good sprinkling of acoustic guitar. Cody is performing with Martin Luther, another soul / r&b singer. There is some opener who I am not going to bother to mention, but may choose to edit the post if they are good. This concert is sure to be entertaining and sensual at what is toted as the best venue in SD, Belly Up. Peace y’all.
EDIT: So it turns out Cody Chesnutt found like women and children and God and is less cool now. He was still highly entertaining and dressed like a fool but I lost a lot of the sexy ideal I had for him. He also stated multiple times through the night he was only going to do new stuff. Myself and the few other people in the audience urged him to do a couple of his classics but it was to no avail. He was very receptive to the audience coming down to be with people. I hugged him and took a pic with him. Below is a video of Martin Luther who he performed with. Martin Luther was hit and miss with the songs. Two things I hate about live shows. 1) “Alright random person on guitar or bass, let me hear a solo.” This leads to moderately impressive solo which is always kind of meh. 2) Fake encores, they might as well just call it a set break or an intermission. If a crowd really wants it come out and play more, otherwise just do your job.
Van Nomads is my story of adventure, travel, and lots of libraries. On June 12, 2009 I left home with my comrad George to find what needed to be sought. This blog attempts to chronicle that adventure in some fashion or another. The full story is yet to be told however. For more info check out the full about page.
