SPB: What do you like to do on a tour off date?

RJD2: On an off date when I'm touring, two things dominate my day: food, and craigslist. That's pretty much it. So I'm on Yelp, asking on twitter, texting friends, etc to make sure I'm eating the must-have grub. And simultaneously, I'm trolling craigslist for finds on gear-synths, amps, mics-whatever. That's pretty much it. Might hit a flea market if it's a Saturday or Sunday, or a thrift store if it's convenient, but they are hit or miss. Sometimes I forego CL-ing for record digging. But it's one or the other, for sure.
