Bottom of the Hill is one of my favorite venues I've ever been to.

Wow, I totally didn't see the SD date. So many shows around this time, and I have no money.

last time I saw these guys was at Bottom Of The Hill w/ Chuck Ragan
I watched like 3 Samiam songs after Chuck and left
Seen them with Green Day before too

I'd go to the Tiltwheel one just to hear what slurred wisdom Davey gives us. Last time we played with them he said into the mic something to the effect of, "One of these days we're all gonna look back on this and be like, whooooo!"

Genius.

I'd just like to say "Darwin Was a Baptist" is one of the best songs I've ever heard.

Well thank you! I really appreciate it. It means a lot to me when someone gets something out of our songs.

Samiam, please tour somewhere that's do-able for me to at least drive to.

I need to see them.

Goddamnit! I don't know why I assumed one of these dates would be in Chicago.
Oh well. A guy can dream, can't he?

Bodyjar's last album was pretty disappointing. Not sure what the hell they were trying to do. How It Works and Plastic Skies are both really solid though. The older stuff...is just okay.

Seeing A Death In The Family and Samiam would be sooooo good. One more reason I wish I lived in Australia.

Looking forward to the Melbourne gig. Is gonna be some good times. Hope there is a Sydney gig too. Is gonna be a sweet show.

mattyt (June 9, 2009)

they would have to play more shows in OZ surely. Too $$ to come all that way and only play Melbourne. Come on Sydney show....

Samiam really need to play some shows in germany in the near future ... this band is still so much better than most of the other bands out there ...

my friends band is also supporting samiam in melbourne. grim fandango, they sound like o pioneers

are Nothington doing the Melbourne show? fucking hope so

Love bodyjar. Have all their albums. I wonder if this is a return to the road and if there is a new album coming.

I agree their last was not their best, but still good. Plastic Skies was awesome, but also love earlier albums. They are fantastic live.

On a side note their drummer was drumming for Horsell Common after leigh left. Wonder whether he is doing both bands still...both have been very quiet of late :(
