Why are they hating on Maryland/Washington D.C.? Last time they came through it sold out. Sad sad day.

You know, when a band stops in Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver, that makes it a North American tour, not a U.S. tour. YOU CAN TAKE OUR WATER AND TREES, BUT HANDS OFF OUR BEST CITIES MMKAY!?? Just kidding. Sort of.

the closest they're coming to new orleans is chicago. great. after seeing them at bonnaroo i'd be satisfied without ever seeing any band live ever again, but seeing them again would be epic.
