    For those of you that would like signed copies:

    http://www.newburycomics.com has them for sale.

    You will recieve 2 booklets, a plain one, and a signed one.

    I have ordered signed stuff from Newbury before.

    Just thought I'd pass this along. They may have signed copies of No deliverance as well (not sure though).

    just passing along info that people may want to be aware of. 8-)

    I guess I'm the only one on this thread that doesn't care for Play.Rock.Music at all. It doesn't really rock like previous Toadies records. A little too experimental sounding for me. I was really looking forward to something new but this just doesn't do it for me.

    It does have a different vibe than other previous Toadies records. I really love the record for the most part and I am really glad with the direction they decided to go with on this record. I do agree with Red Mos a little on it having a more Burden Brothers guitar feel to it and I do feel like it's a more "Sad" record. But still, it kicks ass!

    Never listened to the Burden Brothers, but if this is what they sound like, I probably wouldn't like them.

    really don't understand that 21+ only deal with Seattle shows especially when some are all ages and 21+ to drink. I mean GWAR was an all ages show, and Toadies 21+ crazy!

    Went to the show last night, had an amazing time! It apparently didn't sell well, the HOB closed off the upstairs section which hardly ever happens. A lot of people left after Helmet actually - it was cool to finally see them live. I didn't care though, more room for me to rock out :mrgreen: When the Toadies took the stage it was awesome! They opened with Backslider and just played a killer set, sprinkling some new songs in like Summer of the Strange and Animals. They played a really awesome array of tunes from every album, including Waterfall from Feeler. When they played Tyler something happened on the floor - some douchebag apparently got into a fight. The band stopped playing and VTL was visibly upset. He actually left the stage and said that they were done. Major bummer. But security got the guy out and the band came back. They played Tyler again and 3 more songs, INCLUDING DOLLSKIN, which made me ever so happy!!!! Closed with I Burn.

    All in all an amazing show!!!

    Glad you had such a great time! I don't know what it is with D bags at shows latley? Some dude started a fight the night before in Michigan. Was talking to a few road crew peeps about it on FB. I have seen a few fights during "Tyler" down here, and a bunch of crowd surfing, but the crowd was really calm, on the floor this last time, but I was in the balcony anyway. Nice to see they are playing Dollskin on this tour now. I hope they come back towards the end or middle of next year, I already need another Toadies fix. I would love to hear "Magic Bullet" or "the Appeal" live. Also, it pisses me off when people upset VTL, he is one of the nicest musicians that I have ever met.

    So I finally got the Play.Rock.Music disc this week and have been jamming to it in my car all week - sounds amazing blasting with the windows open :mrgreen: So many dark and dirty sounds on this record, I absolutely love it!

    So the song Animals is pretty dirty...in true VTL fashion.

    Dammit this band is so underrated!

    I have to bump this thread. Toadies have been a long time favorite of mine. I saw them in 2001 and again last summer. These guys fucking rock!

    Their new album, Heretics has reimagined versions of a lot of their earlier songs as well as some new songs and a great cover of Blondie's "Heart of Glass".

    Whether you are a fan of theirs or not, this album is worth hearing, IMO. It was expertly recorded, mixed and mastered and contains some of the most beautiful songs about stalking, general creepiness and twisted murderous behavior one is ever likely to hear.
