If you live in Canada right now, you best be doing backflips over this tour, cause all us folks down here in the lower half of North America are jealous as hell.

God Bless ya, Gramlich. Mare goes on first so make sure you get yo ass there early.

This band absolutely dominates on stage, which means its time for you to log off whatever message board you are logged onto, and go see a real live band for a change. We'll refrain from saying it won't kill ya, cause it actually might...
