SuperRad (January 9, 2007)

Never heard them.

punk_rawk_show (January 9, 2007)

you should do yourself a favour and check them out

Someone (January 9, 2007)

these guys are rad.
they need to tour with the fire still burns.

Someone (January 9, 2007)

New album is really good. Stream it and see.

OverDefined (January 9, 2007)

Wheres that goofy picture?

fallingupwards84 (January 9, 2007)

i didnt know punknews.org recognized this band

Someone (January 9, 2007)

there have been numorous post about them in the past.

MrStylson (January 9, 2007)

they were referencing the level of shafted MTS received at the end of year lists

Fuzzy (justin) (January 9, 2007)

Yeah, Gunner and I don't chat on instant messenger or email back and forth. We also didn't have a full album stream and contest for their album.

Don't be a wank.

Someone (January 9, 2007)

It's a weeknight show but I think I might make it (LBC)

Someone (January 9, 2007)

Blacktop Mourning sucks ball lint, but MTS and Ryan's Hope on the same bill means its going to be one badass show.

BigDaddy287 (January 9, 2007)

Counterpunch is amazing too

Punkengineer (January 9, 2007)

Going to the Fullerton show... really stoked.

JayTee (January 9, 2007)

I just ran into Dan(no) last week. Fun fact, the dude from Ignite sang backup on their new album.

red_eye_inc (January 9, 2007)

Wow, thanks for playing Macomb and not Chicago. I went to school in Macomb, it's the worst. Nobody will go see them and if they're playing at a party the police will shows up as soon as they play their first chord. If the guys in any of these bands read this, make sure to get payed before they play.

red_eye_inc (January 9, 2007)

before you play

Someone (January 9, 2007)

Arlington Heights is a Chicago suburb, just a little northwest of the city.

red_eye_inc (January 9, 2007)

I know where Arlington Heights is. I live in Chicago and don't have a car. I missed the last time they played because it was over at some ungodly early hour.

Someone (January 9, 2007)

i know the place they are playing in macomb and its awesome. its my friends place and is always packed with kids for shows. so fuck off.

red_eye_inc (January 10, 2007)

I've played in Macomb many times. YOU fuck off.

spalmer (January 9, 2007)

WHAT!

www.blink-182.com

why hasn't this been posted yet?

JayTee (January 9, 2007)

Dear god....

jonodeath (January 9, 2007)

hahahahaha didn't see that coming, and neither did the person getting a banana shot at their face.

el_matt (January 9, 2007)

What the shit?

baseball (January 9, 2007)

Much the Same and Ryan's Hope in Baltimore....wish someone could make that show happen

couldn't make Much the Same last time they were here :-

ChokingVictim (January 9, 2007)

Wow, these guys really fucking tour. "Survive" was a good album, but it wouldn't have made any of my best of '06 lists either.

Gunner (January 9, 2007)

Quick update, we have had to cancel Jan 10 and 11 due to illness, so the tour will start on January 12 in Spencer, IA. Sorry if anyone was planning on going to either of those.

Someone (January 9, 2007)

welp, that stinks. i could justify driving an hour and a half to see one band, but three and a half is just too far. make a stop in des moines next time!

ChokingVictim (January 9, 2007)

Dude, it's Iowa.

Someone (January 9, 2007)

good point... wait, what?

BTown (January 9, 2007)

Come to the South.

Someone (January 9, 2007)

Isn't that where texas is?

BTown (January 10, 2007)

Fine, Southeast/Mid-South - whatever.

Someone (January 10, 2007)

Good luck getting to Denver. We're supposed to get 2 feet of snow starting Thursday. The 4th week in a row that we've had snow of at least a foot. It's friggin crazy.

Someone (January 11, 2007)

yeah i showed up last night no much the same bummer

moshd (January 9, 2007)

hey i can help book the jan 29 show in el paso texas email me at
barry@houseofrockandroll.com

el_matt (January 9, 2007)

This band is much the same to me.

Someone (January 9, 2007)

Omg lol hahahahaha no way you went there!!!

Someone (January 10, 2007)

Considering the fine art of skatepunk barly exists anymore thats a good thing.

Someone (January 9, 2007)

Much The Lame

AphasiacIIC (January 9, 2007)

nice, 4 socal dates

i know antagen is doin a party bus to one of the upland dates that leaves from south orange county

Someone (January 9, 2007)

this band is a joke

JayTee (January 9, 2007)

YOURE a joke.

BigDaddy287 (January 9, 2007)

Seriously, if you have heard the new album but have never see them live, get out to one of these shows! I have now seen them more than 10 times, and I can honestly say that their show gets better every time.

Dusticles (January 9, 2007)

Macomb Illinois is the worst college town in Illinois. come to bloomington/normal, please. I hate western

Someone (January 9, 2007)

western fucking rules. bloomington sucks.

red_eye_inc (January 10, 2007)

They're both bad. So is DeKalb and Carbodale and wherever the fuck Eatern is. Same wine, new bottles.

Someone (January 9, 2007)

Last time I went to see MTS, they turned back from Florida because of hurricanes. :/ I was promised these shows would be made up! I hope I didn't miss it.

Someone (January 9, 2007)

You did. They were just here in florida in November, and they were awesome

Sally_Field (January 9, 2007)

Hopefully these dates will answer the recent question WHERE'S MUCH THE SAME?!!??!

punk_rawk_show (January 9, 2007)

get your asses to australia already

Scruffy (January 9, 2007)

Survive was my fourth favorite album of 06, after NMB, Loved Ones and the Arms. Simply amazing. I can't wait to see MTS again.

Someone (January 10, 2007)

going to the Corpus Christi show.
that band, Dead Sky, is actually pretty good.
finally some decent bands come to town.

Someone (January 10, 2007)

don't like this band very much at all
