Woot....a Kansas City date! Marked in my calendar...

 

[zinescene]

HELL YEAH. SONATA ARCTICA AND DELAIN (Again)!!!

 

[Mardoch]

I'd probably go to NO just to see Delain. I'll try to make that one happen... maybe even try to drag my wife with so that she can witness Floor.

The best part of this mess is that their booking agency lists Sonata Arctica as part of the tour, but the official tour press release doesn't mention Sonata Arctica once, and their logo is also not on the official tour poster.

Someone dropped the ball...

El oh El.

It's nice that they are hitting a lot of under-served markets. Spokane on the 1st leg, Missoula on the 2nd. Most bands who come through these parts hit Vancouver, Seattle & Portland and consider the NW taken care of.

Pretty excited about the NOLA show. The civic is a great venue, although the floor can be a little echo-y.

You going to Kamelot there this week? I've not been to the Civic yet that I can recall.

Looks like the ball has finally been picked up...
