Scranton, PA’s Captain, We’re Sinking just wrapped up a tour in support of their new 7″ for Kind Of Like Records, It’s a Trap. The band has been kind enough to send us another diary of their recent exploits. In this episode, the band hits the southeast and tries strangely-named drinks in North Carolina, plays a rain-soaked outdoor set and (probably) hangs out with South Carolina’s finest exotic dancers, among other things.
