BEST. TOUR. YET.
After 16 shows across the entire eastern half of the US, we're home safe and (relatively) sound. You guys fucking rule.Besides having to rebuild the transmission in Pennsylvania, someone trying to break into the van in Philly, and selling out of some of our merch, the tour went off without a hitch. Best freakin' tour yet. We're hungry to get back out, ASAP.
We played some great venues, met and hung out with some fantastic people, and played with the best batch of bands we've ever played with on tour, some old and some new to us.
We owe some serious thank yous. Here it goes:
You the showgoer, Andrew Johnson, Attack Octopus, Drop Dead Giants, Bear Claw and Scott Picco, Quatre Tete, Sleeping In Gethsemane, Rick McCarty, Pantz Party, No Aloha, {{{Sunset}}}, Laura Matson, Cottman Transmission, Kill You In The Face and Mike, Ale, and Adam, Frede @ Punk Rock Payroll, Company Corvette, Dangerbird, Greg and The New Hawaii dudes, We Vs. The Shark, Florida=Death, Hammer No More The Fingers, Joe and Slim's Downtown, Heather, Todd & Kelly Lemiesz, The Poles, Rocket Club Ken, King Tut, Dropsonic, 13 Day Mission, Gamenight, Josh and Brandon Manis, Chris Rusk, Castle Sunshine (Matthew, Josh, Nick), Stop Don't Stop, Over The Atlantic, Human Cargo, Victoria, Skies Fallen, Jake n' Mel, Mr. History, Kendall and Black Gasoline, Landing On The Moon, Fromanhole, Jodeen and Barry, Bryan Baxter and Massive Graphics, Traindodge, and of course....Riddle Of Steel.
If we forgot you, send us an e-mail and tell us what inconsiderate boneheads we are.
Until next time,
self-evident
