I played a show in Atlantic City, NJ for the first time last week and found it to be a really interesting place.  Prior to that, I had only heard about it and knew absolutely nothing.

Usually, when you get done driving seven or eight hours and arrive in a new city, the first thing you wanna do is roll down your windows and take in some air.  Unfortunately, the air smelled really weird, and by weird I mean not good.  I knew that we were near the ocean and expected it to smell like the ocean but, instead, it smelled more like a giant swamp.

Then I checked into my illustrious two-star hotel.
