First I will quote myself.

cneutron wrote:hey kids, benadrian and mine's band Replicator from Oakland, CA, has a new record out called Machines Will Always Let You Down, and we're doing a big coast to coast tour. Of course since I am a glutton for punishment I am booking the tour myself (as I am known to do)... so here's the deal, a lot of the shows are coming together pretty well, in fact a good portion of it is confirmed already or in good hands... however there are some tough parts, and I'm wondering if you might be into helping with that?

I wrote that awhile ago... a lot has changed, for the most part stuff is pretty good though, I would have just responded back to the original message as per protocol. But it was kind of messy I guess.

Major bummer in no Qui show in San Diego and no Stinking Lizaveta in Philadephia, but certainly not for lack of trying.

Yes, it's messy, I don't really care. I'll make a nice repostable gif sometime this weekend or something. Everything is pretty much confirmed, except... where it's not.
(LA is hinky, but expected to become less hinky, nothing between Phoenix and Austin, no venue for Norman/OKC and Missoula can't be confirmed before Totalfest is over... suggestions are always welcome too. )

I'll make a more impassioned argument later, but please if you can come out to these shows, it'd be great to see/meet you, and I know Ben (who interacts with you far more) probably agrees... or at the very least would like to give you a punchin the mouth.

And if by some crazy stretch of the imagination you have a suggestion for one of our open slots, or want to play (especially in MPLS, Portland, Pittsburgh, Wilmington, Austin or Memphis)

let us know!

Bump. I know you could call this "spam," but fuck that attitude. I doubt that most of you feel that way anyway (re: "spam"). Bands on this board deserve our support.

Why don't you guys try playing Madison? It's an ideal middle ground between Chicago and Minneapolis. I didn't look at your schedule too closely.

Good luck!

Also...you're playing that show with HiFi and Bear Claw! Sweet!

you know, it'd be spam if we didn't already have a number of friends and fans on here.

It might be considered spam if one of the members of the band wasn't a regularly contributing member (and another... myself... an occaisonal)

We were originally going to play Madison and Milwaukee, but it ended up not working out that way... that's fine we have that section locked down pretty good.

Madison and Milwaukee. That would have been pretty ambitious indeed.

hell we are doing a bunch of the dates with Hifi.
