As one last gesture of Shreveport’s full-on Teeth devotion, LaVette hosted a huge Louisiana-style breakfast for National Eye, The Teeth, The Big Positive, and ten of their friends.
There was cereal, sausage, potatoes, grits, tofu scramble, fruit, coffee, tea, everything. The whole house was filled with musicians and fans, all three bands hanging out in different groups, joking around, breaking things, playing with the cat and dog, learning about roller derby, posing for a big group picture and finally helping to clean up the kitchen.
In an empty Chinese restaurant in Huston at dinner The Teeth decided they didn’t want to play the gig that night. Peter thought they should rock paper scissors and the loser would have to do a solo set.

Two cars of Shreveporteans followed us to Huston to Super Happy Fun Land, an eerie, hippy house modeled after some sort of childhood nightmare. The walls were painted with colorful animals on one side and screaming demons on the other, and the entire front living room was sprayed with toys.
Even though the owners offered us our choice of 20 saggy couches to sleep on, we opted to follow TBP to their friend Alison’s house where we stayed up all night.
