Back in Portland

Back in Portland, relaxing after a long trek across North America and Canada.

We're heading back down to Florida on Sunday and jumping head first into the new album. We have no material, but that's why it's good to have your own studio. Or at least it's good to know someone with their own studio.

I'm siked to hear what Sampsa's been working on. Last time I saw the Auvos he just had a stack of lyrics. According to a couple little birdies he's been laying down tracks while being his girl's new full-time producer.

I am ecstatic to hear Glory Fades. Sampsa's been working non-stop since the showcase and I'm really looking forward to hearing the finished product.

Music Recommendations

Hola, monkeys.

I just wanted to let you know about the new page that will be appearing on the TX blog sometime today.

The musical inclined members of the RF and us outsiders will be compiling a list of music you should check out.

The first additions, Sarah's get-to-work music for today, are Amy Winehouse's Back to Black, Bon Jovi's Lost Highway, Buckcherry's 15, and Carrie Underwood's Play On.

Thank you to Gator, who sent me this great graphic. I will be posting it everywhere and anywhere I can.

Wheel of Fortune & Jeopardy with the Auvos!

Storm and the Chesticles

Sarah and I are sitting down with Brock, Bob, and the rest of our group to finalize things for TX7 today.

I thought while Sarah tended to Hannele, I'd confront all of the things that have been said about the "confrontation" that happened at the Larkins' Christmas party.

There was no fight or argument. There was a slight disagreement between Sarah and Storm that resulted in Storm leaving the party.

Sarah and Storm have been together nearly every day since Storm joined the tour and have never had any conflicts before. I think they are just worn out and a break from each other is all that they need for this to calm down.

Storm has decided to take a break from the Team Xtreme tour and focus on her band right now.

Storm is part of our family and no matter what happens she'll always be welcome back with open arms anytime. We wish her and the Chesticles the best of luck.

I Think I'm In Love

Hey, guys. I just wanted to come on here and say thank you to everyone in LA, Portland, and San Francisco for coming out and dealing with our shenanigans.

I'd also like to take this time to thank Tsavo and the one and only, Sarah Auvo for putting up with me and my Chesticles. We could've done the shows without you, but really it wouldn't have been as much fun.

I also wouldn't have had the opportunity to witness the rare, magical, and mysterious drunken Mrs. Auvo. That girl has a very, very dirty mind and an even more dirty mouth. With every nasty word that came out from behind those lips, I fell more and more in love with this woman. She's not only the greatest singer and all-around musician I've ever seen, she can drink you under the table and still verbally kick you in the goodies.

I can't wait for TX7 to start so we can show everyone just how grown our little girl has become.

David, Brian, and James, you crazy bastards are my family and I love you, but it's time we take a break from that damn bus.

Xie Xie, Xtreme Peeps

Hello, TX blog peeps!

Sampsa, Storm, Wiz, Brock, Lutalo, newbie B. Horne, and I are working hard to get all the Team Xtreme Tour info together for this blog and for the main site.

We have a LOT of information to put together in a somewhat organized manner so... bare with us.

Bridget Horne, the newly donned Ms. Xtreme, has taken this week off and is going to make sure we've got our Xtreme heads on straight before she goes back to her life, which she graciously dropped to help our sorry butts.

I'm going to make sure one of us - Storm, Sampsa, or me - lets you all know when more information is added to the pages.

We gave each of the six tours their own page on the blog, but only Tour #4 has all the concert dates. The locations aren't on there yet, but the dates are.

Happy Birthday, Sampsa!!!

While Sarah is running around like a chicken with its head cut off, I wanted to post on here and say...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SAMPSA!!!

He's playing with the kiddies right now because Sarah told him to stay in the bedroom until she gets the dishes and laundry done. She wants to get the dishes done so everyone can have coffee before 10 a.m. This woman doesn't stop.

So we're all trying to stay out of her way while we watch MST3K: Werewolf, which is Sarah's favorite.

Janoinen Lohi

I love Finland!

I just spent five hours having lunch at Janoinen Lohi with Mr. and Mrs. Auvo and I wish we could've stayed longer.

We had to leave because Sarah got a call that Sam, her grandson, had a fever. As far as I know he's fine now and in the protective hands of Dr. Delbin.

This tour was the best I've been on and the downtime has been the best.

Golden Corral is my new favorite place in the world.

First Team Xtreme Blog Post

I get to be the first one to post since we found out that the Boys' Blog is being converted into the Team Xtreme Blog. I'm very excited about keeping you updated on all the behind-the-scenes shizz.

Our fearless leader, Mrs. Auvo is making spaghetti for us crazy bastards. Or pasghetti as Emma calls it.

It smells really good so...
