Ehhhh, I actually hope not. I heard that the band was somewhat burnt out during the LA HOB show since they had to do Jay Leno and the HOB show at the same day.

I want this band to be as crisp as they possibly can be which may be tough since this would be the last show of the leg (of a somewhat grueling tour already) and doing some tv stuff may put more fatigue into that.

It's somewhat counter-intuitive anyway since the album cycle is going to be winding down at that time.

Yeah why bother promoting the album on tv when you're gonna give up on it after this year anyways.

One more show is announced. It is, sadly, a festival though. A few days ago, they announced that they would be playing at the Labor Fest in San Antonio which didn't make a bit sense when I researched further into it.

Today, they made this announcement.

I saw a response to it on the twitter that led me to this page and here are the main bands of it. I'm sure Seether is going to headline this. Ehhhh.

I'm counting down the days. I hope they continue to mix up the set like they did back in the spring. Even just swapping Schlip with FTR every other day and trading out one Fortress song for another keeps it exciting for me.

I want to go to new york with my girlfriend. Looking to do no more than 500-700 bucks total on the trip. Gas will be about 200 I'd say. 6 hours one way. But, I was thinking if there's anything cool in the area, it'll be worth it. And, we've never been up north before. What are some cool spots? Can I find a hotel for one night for say a hundred bucks? Less than 150 on 2 tickets?

Probably not in the city no, but you could probably get a cheap one across the river in NJ for cheap and take the train in for a couple of bucks and 20 minute ride. I was just looking at hotels in Newark today and saw a price for Tuesday night at $69. The place sucked ass in terms of ratings, but is in a decent area to get into NYC.

I went to NYC a couple of September's ago. Stayed in a hotel on Long Island. I don't recall it costing over $100 a night, and it wasn't a shit hole. We just spent a few dollars and took the Long Island Railroad (LIRR) into the city. That's an option, too

The show in NY is not in the city, it's out on Long Island about an hour or an 1.5 hours from midtown. I'd look for a hotel out there and see what you can find. Hopefully one of the guys from LI can suggest some places to stay, but don't stay in Manhattan or New Jersey as they aren't close enough to the show for it to be worth it.

They have a top 25 song on the rock charts now called love the way you hate me. Chemical infatuation, just save me, I could go on. Chaos theory part 1 is on spotify. Their debut album, the end of the beginning is great, too.

Wait, as much as I'm psyched to see two favorite bands, promo has been for California Breed to open for these shows. I'm confused.

Maybe California Breed was billed as the support band behind the headliner? Pretty much, the same spot that Shinedown was in during their Europe tour back in 2013.
