@jusslic: their drummer just quit to do his solo stuff. it was unexpected, so they are kind of scrambling right now. morgan could do it, but he isn't really a trained drummer, and they need him to play all of the side instruments anyway.

"new album is way too good to not have any shows right now".......yeah exactly. I'd understand if they were touring in Europe or something but as far as I can tell they don't have anything on the slate. Odd to skip the festivals during an album year.
