I don't like these dates so far. None of them are even close to remotely simple for me to get to. Hopefully it makes another wrap around the US, or some more dates at the start for the west, or something...

Same here. The closest stop, Mokena, is over 5 hours away.

8 - 10 hours for me... Which is Denver. Horrid to get to on Monday's at that time of year too, because you have to drive through the area I call "Camper's Haven". Basically you have a buncha campers on the road returning to wherever they live from this one 100 mile stretch of mountain region. The roads are a mess.

Other option is flying to Hollywood on a Wednesday :/

Looks doubtful there will be anymore dates added, their myspace says:

"Katatonia will return to headline their first American tour this fall. Kicking of September 4, the tour will make nineteen stops around the country and will feature an all European line-up with Sweden's Scar Symmetry joining up with Finland's Insomnium and Swallow the Sun."

This blows. Time to figure out which date to get my ass to!

 

[Lunar Still]

If I liked them enough to go all the way up there, I'd get our Powerfest room again and trash it in an identical fashion.

 

[EricT]

Hahah... I was actually thinking about that!

 

[Lunar Still]

That would mean you'd have to regurgitate White Castle all over the floor....

....but Will wouldn't be there, so I guess I'd have to drink the beer coffee :zombie:

 

[EricT]

Hahahaha.

Powerfest next year, i'll hit up the subway a little more and see if I can have the lettuce return to its pre-eaten form when being vomited.

 

[WhiteBeastofWotan]

Ill probably go to the nyc gig

 

[Kellan]

these locations suck

 

[Ryan VH]

Sweet. I'll be getting my tickets to the Hollywood show.

 

[EricT]

Why the fuck do they have 2 southern california dates? I mean, corona is what, 70 miles from west hollywood? Pointless!

 

[deathstrike from hell]

thats what's great about ohio. theres ALWAYS a date within 3-5 hours

 

[Enemy242]

fuck, no sf date? i gotta try to get to corona ugh?

 

[deathstrike from hell]

you'd be fucking stupid to pass up katatonia, swallow the sun and insomnium.

 

[Enemy242]

its on a thursday and is 7 hours away and i don't have a car, i'm pretty sure its going to be hard to get there.

 

[Kellan]

yeah that's about a 12 hour drive from me. fuck that. am I blind or do I see no Oregon or Washington dates on there? I think the closest one is Corona or fucking Colorado.

 

[EricT]

Yeah... no northwest or southeast whatsoever. Ridiculous.
