The Months To Come

First off, thank you to all the bands we played with and everyone who showed up to our show in Calgary last weekend. Comrad Sound is one the best venues in Alberta and we can not wait until we can play there again. Awesome show! I'll post some pictures when i spot them floating around.

With summer just around the corner, i thought i'd fill everyone in on our plans for this year. (all additional and available show information can be found on our myspace)

-April 22nd | Show W/ Stillbirth(winni), Wake(calg), JeffXSpicoli @ Kev's Basement. This is the second show that Kev and i have put on in this basement, the first being the Cope/Hominid tour kickoff in 2008. If the weather is nice, we'll have a BBQ going so come hang out!

-May 1st | Show W/ Rape Revenge (calg), Lab Rat (calg), Todos Caerán @ TBA. We're really excited to be playing with Rape Revenge. This band is out of control so come support them on their tour! Complete show info will be available to us soon, keep an eye out.

-May 22nd/23rd | Show W/ Relentless Ben (bc), Kali @ TBA. Relentless Ben is made up of some of our best friends from GSTS! and will be making their way through Alberta this may long weekend. So, we thought we'd tag along and ask Kali to come with too. The May 22nd show is in Edmonton, the 23rd in Calgary. Check these guys out! More info soon!

-Sled Island Fest | "Cope & St.Gilles" collaboration performance. We are extremely excited to announce that we will be playing the All Ages portion of this years Sled Island festival in Calgary! For the past couple of months, we have been working on our collaboration album and when the opportunity came up to perform the whole thing live WITH St. Gilles, we had to take it. Additional information is still coming to us and you can be sure it will be posted here promptly when we get it.

-Cross Canada Tour W/ Goose | This summer, we will be embarking on another tour, this one bringing us farther east than before to Toronto and Montreal. Dates are still being scheduled, but as it stands these are the dates:
Saturday, August 14th - Vancouver, BC
Sunday, August 15th - Kamloops, BC
Monday, August 16th - Calgary, AB
Tuesday, August 17th - Regina, SK
Wednesday, August 18th - Winnipeg, MB
Friday, August 20th - Toronto, ON
Saturday, August 21st - Montreal, QC
Tuesday, August 24th - Dauphin, MB

Being as most of these shows are still in the works, details are not set and could be changed. Regardless, we have a fun summer ahead of us and hope everyone comes out to have some fun themselves! As for the "Cope & St.Gilles" record, mixing is almost done and then we'll see if we can give everyone a taste of what we've been up to. The plan is to have this thing out in time for the summer tour with any luck.

That's it for now.
