    got a ticket to the Guelph show on December 19th :D

    now that I think of it, that may influence where I place the new Headstones record in my top 20 albums of 2013 :think:

    How was it?? How many songs? Any standout tracks?

    I won VIP passes for me and a buddy to the Kingston show. They were looking for people to submit stories of their I favourite past headstones concert experience. So I reworked the lyrics to tweeter and the monkey man and made it a story of a Halloween show I attended back in 96ish. I played acoustic bass along with singing the new lyrics, recording it on my iPad. I fucking won. This trip is turning out to be epic. I just hope Ontario gets theiri power issues worked out before the 27th!!!!

    wow, congratulations

    great story, I am sure the power issues will be fine by then

    about 20 songs with a 5 song encore

    they opened with the Binthiswayfortwentyyears, and played Cemetery as the last song of the main set, which I really dig

    Tweeter was the second tune which was awesome

    new stuff sounds awesome live, been listening to the new album alot since the show, band was incredible, as always

    It's not new material. Well, two songs are new. The rest are old hits "reimagined" (it's too simplistic to call it acoustic). Should be cool. Hugh mentioned at the last winnipeg show he'll see us in the summer, so I'm hoping it's a sit down affair. That would be so different for this band.

    they played a show at the Horseshoe in Toronto last night. Played an acoustic set from the new record apparently. Hope they do that in Winnipeg next summer!

    I keep badgering Hugh about that. He keeps saying "maybe the next one!". I don't get it. bands of much lesser fame do vinyl. not sure why they won't do it. especially One In The Chamber Music. that record SCREAMS to be on vinyl.

    the band tweeted that they are "writing and rehearsing" and looking to come out of hibernation. New music already? I'LL TAKE IT!! they have a few summer shows booked around Ontario already, so maybe some type of summer EP release and tour.
