Butch's diary:

Aug. 18, 2001: Our first show in Japan. I'm a little nervous but equally excited. On the fourth song in, That's Not Really Funny, I have technical difficulties and I completely blow the beginning. It really wasn't funny. E turns and gives me the "death look." The rest of the set I'm just trying to recover. No Rock-a in Osaka. At the end of the set I just wanted to go up to each person who saw the show and personally apologize.
