*** For Immediate Release ***

Fat Wreck Chords tour
with No Use For A Name, Mad Caddies, and Consumed
across Canada

Well, it's about time that Fat Wreck Chords finally set up a Canadian
extravaganza of punk rock, beer-guzzling
fun. The tour spans nearly a dozen shows in the Great White North, and is
headlined by California's No Use For A
Name and Mad Caddies, and from England, Consumed. Each band is armed with
their
own new release, and will be ready to rock your night the only way they
know how, and just the way you like it: fast,
fun, and loud.

Having already released four full - lengths on Fat Wreck Chords, including
their latest, More Betterness, No Use For A Name have made the most of
their 12 year existence with a total of six signature speedy, melodic
skate-punk records under
their belts. Already sporting a sharp new guitarist, replacing Chris, (the
new Foo-Fighter), No Use For A Name are ready to do
what they do best with extremely tight rhythms and melodic, guitar -
intensive tunes.

Joining this ultimate Fat Wreck tour is the 7-piece, ska-core outfit from
the central coast of California, Mad
Caddies. Although they're a mere four years old, Mad Caddies have
established themselves, with the help of Fat
Wreck, as a high-notch ska-punk band with already two quality full -
lengths, including their latest, Duck and Cover.

Rounding off the tour is a blistering, melodic punk rock four-piece out of
Nottinghamshire, England, called
Consumed. The band's debut CD, a 6 song EP entitled Breakfast at Pappa's,
was more than well received, and
readily prepared us all for their brand spanking new full - length, Hit
for Six.
