Here we go… Day 1 of Mike’s mini tour of appearances and autograph signings at six Zumiez locations in the Midwest and Northeast. Today was basically a travel day out to Chicago for the first signing at Zumiez at the Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg, IL. This might not be the most exciting blog we’ve posted but the real action will be starting tomorrow… Just getting warmed up with this one. As always, I snapped off a few pics from the days travels and here they are. On with the show… Enjoy.

Mike on the tarmac. “You talking to me?”
Boarding Jet Blue Flight 934. Direct to Chicago.
Landed in Chicago, here we are picking up the rental car for the trip. Membership has it’s privileges. I have no idea who the dude creeping into the photo is.
Loading up and headed to the hotel.
Killing some time at Borders. Apparently the two guys I’m traveling with are famous or something. Here is Mark in the newest issue of Outburn…
…and Mike in the latest Thrasher.
More time to kill… Catching a 10 PM showing of Shutter Island. Packed house.
Mike handling some business before lights out.
And finally, Mark captures me posting these pictures. The behind the scenes of behind the scenes.
All the action starts later today!!!

Crude video I filmed with my Canon pocket cam.

Alternate angles of some of the tricks from Mike V’s “Birthday Brigade” segment from The Berrics. I filmed this with my Canon Powershot pocket camera and choose a more raw edit for that “behind the scenes” feel. Enjoy.
