    Tomorrow for their iTunes fest set, it says 9 PM London time. Does anyone know what time that would be for US east coast time? 3 or 4?

    Updated the tour section a bit. There was a Montreal gig they snuck in the day after the Toronto show and added the Australia/New Zealand dates also. I also put the openers next to the show dates.

    I really want "New Way Home" at one of the two shows Im going to. I dont think they have played it this tour but damn its such a good song. The setlist probably wont change from here on out except for 1 maybe 2 songs.

    I think they'll change it a bit more for the US since most of the Europe dates were festivals. I don't care about the set list, I just want to see this band badly!

    Well I'm happy with the Philly date as long as I get tix!

    Newch, I really hope you get a show and get to see them

    I saw them back in 2007 and have been so exicted to see them again on this tour!

    If there isn't a CT date, I might just go up to Boston and find a couple friends to go if they want to.
