    Stop hogging all the dates! :)

    Bridge Burning is such an awesome album opener. Probably my second favorite on the album.

    I'm dreaming of an Albany show. Why bands don't come upstate anymore is beyond me. It's not like a fan base isn't here!

    I kept checking all week and nothing. Oh well. Hopefully they will come soon

    A friend of mine wants to see them too. She knows I'm on top of checking for the dates and has been waiting on my call. We are hoping for Philly

    Yes! This album is going to take me time to learn on drums. I knew Taylor Hawkins was a really good drummer, but DAMN! He is on fire on this album.

    Thanks for the update on the date they'll be announced. I heard about those rumored AU/NZ dates. I'll wait for everything to be announced by the band before I add them.

    EDIT: Confirmed by their Twitter page they're going down under.

    Knowing my luck they will have the presale next week when I am up in Northern Maine camping and don't have any cell/internet service.

    Did they post somewhere that the US announcement will be July 11th or is that just speculation?
