    Toronto rocked! 3rd time seeing them and this was by far the best show. I think the new drummer really helped. Plus they played much longer than I expected.

    Jason came out afterwards to chat with fans, take pictures, and sign things. He seemed to be in good spirits..what a great guy!

    Barely any merch though. All they had was a box of cd's, and for $20 mind you..

    Ending with Decoration Day was mint! :mrgreen:

    Interesting. They had a number of shirts and some vinyl at the Pittsburgh show (though I didn't buy anything myself).

    Very cool that they finished with "Decoration Day." That has to be the perfect show closer.

    I chatted with Jason for a sec after the show and asked about the merch. He said they don't want to risk taking too much across. Not sure what that means, but maybe there's a risk of not letting them bring across certain items? He also mentioned paying duty taxes also causes a problem; likely meaning the profits don't make it worth while.

    Too bad cause I was looking forward to adding to my small vinyl collection..

    After looking at the RSD Black Friday list, this is the only one that really interests me. This says exclusive vinyl for RSD, but on the RSD page it says RSD First.

    The "exclusive" part could be that RSD lists it as a blue vinyl. Perhaps the wide release will be standard black? Either way I can't wait. Saw them last night in Philly and they put on quite a freakin show. Can't wait to see them at The Ryman next month.

    I'm excited about Shoalsfest.  I will fly to Nashville on 9/30 and drive to Alabama on 10/1.  Meeting up with friends from multiple states. I'm very happy to see that the forecast is for mild weather by Alabama standards.  I've been told it was really hot at the first Shoalsfest in 2019.
