Booze varies heavily state to state. So it might be cheap as fuck in Georgia, but it might be fucking ridiculous in somewhere like New Jersey.

Whats weather like in OH in May time?

I think it's pretty warm and nice. I can ask my history teacher tomorrow as he's from there but yeah I think it borders on hot in may. Can't say for sure on degrees though.

On the official site, it has 1 date at House of Blues in Florida listed, 16th may. On page 1 of this topic, it has 2 dates at Lake Buena Vista. Which is it?

It's only one date.

Never mind, there are 2 Florida dates at the end on http://www.adtr.com/ . It wasn't so on ENTERSHIKARI.com...? I don't know if ES will be on that one now? I'm confused.

FUCKIN' DO IT!!!
i was photographic evidence jaymes!!!

depends on if i'deven be able to get a blow up doll in to the venue
although after the incident with hanson fan
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myAQMK_nLFs&feature=response_watch
read the side too
those are the same security guards that picked up my friend and tossed him out the door at the show we saw shikari at their last time
the security did the same thing with me too
after the show the bans invite fans to the merch and shit and as i was walking back there to say "good job, thanks for the show" and all that, we were forced to leave rather than go to the designated merch area, which is crap cnsidering bnds probably lost out on money there


but maybe they have more "sane" security and maybe i can sneak the doll in, however, if it were an outside show like warped, i could do it easily, shame ES isn'tplaying my stp

Looks like Rob wont be joining the lads till the Warped tour, still having Visa issues.

hopefully I can get a ticket...

how have they been going down on this tour so far?
any feedback?

The two nights I saw them they were great. @ Philadelphia they had some technical difficulties early in the set but they sorted them out quickly.
The crowds have definitely been loving them a lot. I only wish their sets were longer and that they played Thumper or Tribalism.
However I was really excited to finally hear Zzzonked and the new dubstep intro to Mothership.

& their temp drummer Tyler sounds great for never playing with them before! He's so sweet, but not much of party-er hahah. The two nights we (my friend & I) went out with the guys he headed back to the hotel! ):

Oh by the way Lee, Rou was trying to hunt you down on chatroulette backstage at the Philadelphia show. haha.

I'm wondering what happened to the street team thing that was planned.

At the shows I went to they were doing that. I saw Keith escorting a handful of people to get their tickets.
I don't know if they are doing it for every show but I know the ones I went to I saw people passing out flyers and then later saw Keith getting them in.

Hmmm I hope it works out for me over here, I'd need it and it would be more convincing for my parents.

Mum doesn't mind me going but Dad sure will and the date is in the week of my final exams (about 3 weeks from now) so I'm still not too sure about it all.

I'm sure it'll be fine! Talk to Keith beforehand through email and see if he can get it confirmed for you! He's the sweetest person ever so I'm sure he'll help you out. (: (: I was supposed to have an exam the day after the Philly show but it got pushed back, thank goodness for that! haha Those boys kept me out till 4 in the morning and then were trying to persuade me to stay in Philly till the next day and go to Jersey to see them! Troublemakers. haha

I "met" them back in 2007 but didn't really talk to them aside from the usual hello, good set, bye.
I then saw them last summer a handful of times and they would recognize me at their shows, harass me to go to more, and then invite me to go out after. With the ADTR Tour, Rou told me about it back in Jan and insisted I go to a bunch of dates. We kept in contact and all of us hung out during and after the shows that my friend and I went to.

I don't know if I'd consider myself good friends with them though haha. I think they might think I'm crazy haha.

I don't know if it would be okay of me to just "e-mail Keith" if you know what I mean I feel like that would be rude!

StandYourGround wrote:I don't know if it would be okay of me to just "e-mail Keith" if you know what I mean I feel like that would be rude!

No way! He's a sweetheart I absolutely adore him! I would go to their shows just to see him. haha
I do understand feeling that might come off as rude though. A friend of my who wanted to interview them was really hesitant about emailing Keith but it all worked out in the end for her. Trust me he's just as nice if nicer than the guys! haha. (:

But I am pretty sure they are doing the street team thing before every show. It's a shame no one else that has went to more recent shows have posted here to say if they've done it at the shows they went to.
