Days off are for chumps.

Or for normal humans with normal destructible throats.

God, I can't wait for this. Am I going to get stabbed? IN THE PIT?

I'm well ahead of you guys

I got my ticket for Brighton yesterday.
Gonna be a corker- I expect it to be brutal. Seeing this band live, I'm going to die happy. But even if I die during the gig, I'll probably be happy too. I'd probably be best to start writing my will quite soon.

I'm seriously thinking...

Fuck the Electric Ballroom in its atmosphere-less ass.

the idea of converge

at the peel is at once terrifying and incredibly exciting.

Boom!

Leeds

I'm gutted as well
Bare My Teeth's opening is one of the most devastating I've heard
I'd sell my arm to hear Phoenix In Flames live

they better climax with jane doe, too. that way id be in a perpetual state of ecstasy.

it would still be immense if they never. it is converge after all.

.

Why the Music Box, Converge? Why? Its such a horrible place to see bands. Still, maybe they'll just destroy it and then a good gig venue can be built in its place.

Rise & Fall too. This will be great.
