joemomma420666 (January 12, 2009)

cool beans

badbrain (January 12, 2009)

cool

2Kings (January 12, 2009)

beeeeeaaaaans

joemomma420666 (January 12, 2009)

Also, when was the last time anybody saw the souls when they weren't looking bored as fuck the whole time?

14theroad (January 12, 2009)

Greg has seemed kind of spaced out the past few times I've seen them.

joemomma420666 (January 12, 2009)

Yeah Greg especially, every time i've seen them post gold record.

Torgo (January 12, 2009)

It is the flip of a coin. When I saw them in Brooklyn Greg was doing stage dives almost every song... I guess it's best to see them without a barricade.

LookingForCorpses (January 12, 2009)

It's been at least 10 years since I've seen a set where Greg looks like he wants to be there.

the_other_scott (January 12, 2009)

you must see them on off nights. first time i saw them was in '97 and i've seen em 20 or so times. greg's only had the "spacey, bored, i'm on drugs" look maybe 3 of those times.

misterspike (January 12, 2009)

Last November in FL.

kneel (January 12, 2009)

yeah that set was awesome.

seeing them in 97 was awesomer

forfuksake (January 12, 2009)

bored as hell the whole show...last 2 times.....still a great show.....

OzmanX (January 13, 2009)

Every time I've seen them Greg has flew into the crowds having fun, guess he just doesn't like you.

shrapnel (January 13, 2009)

all the times I've seen them Greg always looks lost, but the man still has some pipes

fifthwheel (January 13, 2009)

i saw them at home for the holidays and greg was really into it

14theroad (January 12, 2009)

Boston loves The Souls and D4 too.

Xbat-miteX (January 12, 2009)

nuh uh Boston hates D4

14theroad (January 12, 2009)

No one hates D4 except the janitors.

DarthNader (January 12, 2009)

oh boy.
.org-gasm

HOISTDATRAG (January 12, 2009)

agh. come to boston

Dante3000 (rich) (January 12, 2009)

Stoked. Didn't know anyone went to San Jose anymore.
-Dante

abracadaver (January 12, 2009)

This. So fucking stoked -- I've never seen D4 live before.

the_other_scott (January 12, 2009)

i'm guessing this is supposed to say san jose, costa rica. just saying.

Dante3000 (rich) (January 12, 2009)

Ya know...I didn't even look at the surrounding dates. Ain't that a kick in the dick.
-Dante

abracadaver (January 12, 2009)

Or wait...are you sure it isn't San Jose, Costa Rica?

the_creeps (January 12, 2009)

yes, almost certain its a typo - unless they plan on chartering a private plane, fly from mexico to cali, and back to mexico again. and although we have 100's of cowboy hat/moustache clubs, none offically called 'latino rock cafe' that I'm aware of.

RedScare (January 12, 2009)

I just saw a Domino's Pizza banner. No shit.

abracadaver (January 12, 2009)

Looking at it right now.

AndyPonch (January 12, 2009)

How very Christian of Punknews.

Torgo (January 12, 2009)

I'm seeing it too. Besides the fact it's not punx, their thin crust is literally the worst pizza I've ever had in my life, tasting literally like cardboard. Literally.

14theroad (January 12, 2009)

I had some last week for the first time in a long time. I got stomach cramps.

SkolarX (January 12, 2009)

that happened to me the last time i had it too

deadXlast (January 12, 2009)

That has happened to me too every time I remember eating there.

And yeah, it really does taste like cardboard.

Fuzzy (justin) (January 12, 2009)

So they don't appeal to real Crust Punx?

HOISTDATRAG (January 12, 2009)

ah, you are the winner for that

Cheesetits (January 12, 2009)

Pretty embarrassing if you ask me.

Fuzzy (justin) (January 12, 2009)

Yeah, yeah yeah.

We're talking about it.

tubbymidwestpunk (January 13, 2009)

My town managed to put 2 Domino's and a Papa John's out of business in favor of a little hole in the wall called Bob's that is literally a pizza oven and a cash register. I guess what I'm trying to say is, "up tha punx?"

the_other_scott (January 12, 2009)

wish i could see this but that would mean I lived in the south or in pittsburgh. i guess its a fair tradeoff.

joemomma420666 (January 12, 2009)

Hey guys have you checked out Sink or Swim yet?

veganboyjosh (January 12, 2009)

i don't see what that has to do with ...wait what?

mikexdude (January 12, 2009)

Gonna try and be at the Ottobar!

MattRamone (January 12, 2009)

You can crash with me if you need to. Just remember I think your girl is open game.

mikexdude (January 12, 2009)

You weren't at the Black Cat last night; I was sad. When are we going to hang out? I leave the chances open and you don't bite. I'm beginning to think you don't like me! I take back all the nice things I said about you!

MattRamone (January 13, 2009)

You said nice things about me?

dlangl4 (January 12, 2009)

http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/01 5/986rockt.asp

RossHostage (February 21, 2009)

Seriously? Dude....

dlangl4 (January 12, 2009)

Damnit. I hate South by Southwest. I hope I can get a ticket to that show though.

joemomma420666 (January 12, 2009)

Two Left's Don't Make a Right. . .But Three Do is a disc that establishes Relient K as the rulers of the punk kingdom.

deadXlast (January 12, 2009)

Oh my god... I just about pissed myself.

MattRamone (January 12, 2009)

Don't give a shit about the Souls.

Roll call for D4 in Baltimore?

Cyanotic (January 12, 2009)

Not even one of those little tiny pebble shits? Harsh.

donovanjames (January 13, 2009)

I'll fucking be there. Ottobar!

pwrf12 (January 13, 2009)

This will undoubtedly be a great show, but traffic will also undoubtedly suck from DC during rush hour - did any of you guys make it to the NOFX/D4 in October? This tour should come to the Black Cat.

erff (January 12, 2009)

No midwest dates with dillinger four? lame.

demian (January 12, 2009)

is all you think about d4

demian (January 12, 2009)

aka I agree :(

Torgo (January 12, 2009)

Who thought living in Kentucky would have even just one upside?

the_creeps (January 12, 2009)

no way! you guys dominate the turbojet manufactured parts market.

http://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/statistics/state/d ata/ky.html

Torgo (January 12, 2009)

I live in New Jersey... now I have to look up shit on this site now for my state. Most pollution expelled possibly?

miniblindbandit (January 12, 2009)

i consider louisville to be almost like a city state because it is absolutely nothing like the rest of kentucky.

LinoleumMagazine (January 12, 2009)

Austin on 3/20. Holy shit!!! I forgot that SxSW was almost here. Stoked!!!!

Also this guy is a true rebel... http://failblog.org/2008/01/03/zune-tattoo/

Babrook (January 12, 2009)

I fucking hate Cleveland.

This city blows.

badbrain (January 12, 2009)

D4 at the Ottobar, I just shit myself

MattRamone (January 12, 2009)

Dude, we're pregaming at my place.

Cheesetits (January 12, 2009)

Are you going to play "just the tip?"

badbrain (January 12, 2009)

no we play balls deep

MattRamone (January 12, 2009)

Omar don;t scare.

Rudy87 (January 12, 2009)

Pittsburgh, I love you
roll call

Toxic_Toast (January 12, 2009)

yay

TylerK (January 12, 2009)

Yeah, really was not expecting this. At not at Club Zoo or Diesel either!!!

Rudy87 (January 12, 2009)

yeah, thats why Im shocked!
but Im stoked cause I love the Souls and D4

TylerK (January 13, 2009)

To clarify, I am double stoked because they are NOT playing at either of those 2 venues. Club Zoo is always ridiculous overcrowded and no alcohol. It would be nice to see shows come start coming through Mr. Smalls again.

mikexdude (January 12, 2009)

I met/saw/played with Defeater this past weekened, and they're fucking incredible. Go see them now.

skottybloodbank (January 12, 2009)

DOMINOS! its bad pizza and its crazy christian republican pizza party

Cheesetits (January 12, 2009)

Anyone that thinks they should put even more greasy fattening cheese in the crust to hide it's unbearable taste and fulfill the dreams of fat america needs an....award, probably.

Dudley_Shale (January 12, 2009)

Wait, what?

bluemuffin (January 13, 2009)

http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/story?id=3452900

Cheesetits (January 12, 2009)

Meh. Although if this tour was in Hawaii a few months earlier, I would probably be there for the hell of it.

hvmyselfabear (January 12, 2009)

Two nights in a row at the Social? FUCK YEAH

gabbagabbamike (January 12, 2009)

fuck yes. see you there.

BeerInTheDark (January 13, 2009)

I hope they do something special the second night like they did last time they played here. God, that second night was fun.

MattRamone (January 12, 2009)

pzizza slut fight the power

TEF (January 12, 2009)

Dillinger Fur!

Rudy87 (January 13, 2009)

bears...

DMZ (January 12, 2009)

the akas yes

dominos has tasty sandwiches

Mrad (January 12, 2009)

14theroad (January 12, 2009)

Flux capacitor.

Dudley_Shale (January 12, 2009)

Maaarrrttyyyyyyyyy

Rudy87 (January 13, 2009)

grab Einstein!

IanIsSuperRad (January 12, 2009)

Of course. How silly of me to think this tour would be coming to Ohio. D4 avoid Ohio like the plague.

Lance76 (January 13, 2009)

Who doesn't?

el_matt (January 12, 2009)

I wonder if that Rosario date is in Argentina, that's the place I was born.

The more you know!

matt_b (January 12, 2009)

Dillinger Four is playing Chicago March 9th at Reggie's. But it doesn't list the Bouncing Souls so..maybe they are diverging from the tour for a couple days?

saladxdays (January 12, 2009)

actually it looks like D4 doesnt join the tour til the night after.

matt_b (January 12, 2009)

yeah. wow, thanks. i'm such a dumbass. Maybe if I actually...read. Thanks man.

dX927 (January 12, 2009)

Now do I go to one or both of the Orlando shows hmm. One the one hand that's 2 nights of Souls but on the other hand one of those nights is St. Patrick's Day and Downtown Orlando is an annoying place on any holiday.

Opies (January 12, 2009)

Two tours in one year for Dillinger Four? This has got to be a sign of the apocalypse!

BigP (January 12, 2009)

I'm @ Pittsburgh that night, for sure. I'm stoked.

jq (January 12, 2009)

This tour is going to be sweet! Check out www.Dillinger4.net --- a fan tribute site to D4. I'm not much of a web developer, so if you'd like to help make it better, please get in touch!

zombeaner (January 12, 2009)

Wow, not even a stop in Dallas on the way to SXSW. We really have lost any juice we may have had.

skajester (January 12, 2009)

Oh, thank God that's hitting SXSW. Why is that I have to drive 12 hours to see a show like this?

acorren1 (January 12, 2009)

gonna have to drive to ATL for this. stoked regardless. gonna be worth it.

sceneholocaust (January 13, 2009)

Too bad "Dillinger Fur" is playing. Us ATLiens always getting fucked over...

jeffernator (January 12, 2009)

i love the souls.

why do i want pizza all of a sudden...

miniblindbandit (January 12, 2009)

sweet tits D4 and souls in the ville.

GlassPipeMurder (January 12, 2009)

why the heck wouldn't D4 play the T-Rock?

anybody going to see Cursive there on wednesday? i wanna go, but not enough to go alone.

MN_punkmaster-skaman (January 13, 2009)

No but I'm going there for the Bouncing Souls show and back in March for Swingin' Utters/

yousurewearpantsalot (January 13, 2009)

d4 would be way better than the arrivals. the framed rule tho

scientistrock (January 13, 2009)

what makes this especially uncool is that it's nowhere near me.

ChadReligion (January 13, 2009)

How the hell are they going to be in Mexico and then fly to San Jose, CA and then to Panama the very next day?

LastOfTheComberPunx (January 13, 2009)

Fuck yeah dudes, i will be hitting at least 5 of these show. Still can't believe the AKA's are touring after years. Best news in ages. Dont know bout the other bands havnt heard much about them, i will just be there for the AKA'S.
I litterally jumped up out of my bedroom seat when i heard this. Later

crackpotdemagogue (January 13, 2009)

i can't believe there is a place called 'skull alley'. wow!

manincognito (January 13, 2009)

canada, please

twstdbydsn (January 13, 2009)

"Bouncing Souls have begun announced 2008 dates."

is this even a sentence?? I'm no English major, but wow...

MARKO630 (January 13, 2009)

No boston date = bullplop
