Oh, hell. There goes the budget.
Again.
Dang! Had I known when they were going to be in Kansas City, MO, I could have planned a road trip. Guess I'll have to wait for the Chicago gig. Why no stop in Minneapolis? Like we're not Nordic enough or something??? ;-)
oh thank god seattles on there! now i just need to pick up some ticks.
aw man, no Bay Area dates?
I saw SR in LA a few years back. I think i cried the entire time. SO beautiful.
it means 'with a buzz in our ears we play endlessly' :)
the photos look great, wish they'd do some shows here that aren't festivals. i'd be there in an instant.
wow, US dates! wonder why no south carolina dates?!?! ha! at least i'll be able to get the new album.
I saw them in Kansas City! I never thought I would get the chance.
my heart skipped a beat...or three...when i saw the last city...
but no dates in the Bay Area!
