Hondo Mesa Records recording artist, Brian Francis of the fantastic roots band, Kh'Mi, is traveling across the United States in search of... well, I'm not sure. Brian is probably sure. Below is a except from his rough draft "essay" (but really it's a burgeoning ethnography). I'll post more if you are interested.

I’m not here at Tom’s to drink Daiquiris'.
All day I’ve been taking the back roads across Texas: driving through a rolling ocean of grays and greens at seventy plus (the speed limit in most places). To my eyes it seemed a scrolling sea of dots flickering past,
glimpsed but not really seen.
All day I’ve been doing this and at last I’ve got as far as Lubbock, and I’m hoping to catch the second half of the game. Having little cash, Tom’s happens to be my only option, all the other places on the strip either have a steep cover or no television.
This is my reality, and presently it’s all about Tom’s.
