The band looks back on their December 2000 Florida tour, with stops at quirky venues like Lost & Found in Orlando, Hangtime Joe’s in Lakeland, Jack Rabbits and Murray Hill in Jacksonville, and Grounds Coffeehouse in Sebring. They swap stories about odd payments (two cokes for four people), crashing at promoters’ houses, phantom music, sweaty floor shows, and Miami hospitality. Between laughs, they reflect on how young they were, road life with no money or cell phones, and how today’s kids experience music and boredom differently.

Closing Out Through It All In this episode, we revisit the final song written for Jeremiah’s Grotto’s Through It All album—Peace of Mind. From its last-minute creation before heading into the studio to the “underwater” vocal experiments, we unpack how a simple three-chord idea became one of our favorite tracks to play. We share stories about its first shaky live debut, the moments it truly clicked on stage, and the deeper meaning behind its short but heartfelt lyrics.

And as a bonus—we unveil a brand-new AI reimagining of Peace of Mind, blending past and present in a way we never could have imagined back in the day. It’s nostalgia, storytelling, and a little bit of future tech all in one.

In this episode of the Jeremiah’s Grotto podcast, we spiral back through the glory days of microwaved chip bags, empty venues, Club 412 confusion, Gypsy’s house, and the sacred dollar menu. It’s a wild ride through memory lane—Texas style. 🌵

If you’ve ever slept on a church pew or played for a door guy who’d rather be at Jimmy Eat World… this one’s for you.
