so here’s our final route.  a few things have changed - mostly the Texas dates (man, what a booking adventure!) and a few Northwest US shows.  but it’s all there, for the most part!
we’re ridiculously excited to get out and experience parts of the country that we rarely get to see. if you’re on the fence about coming to a show, know this: i seriously have NO IDEA when we’ll be back to most of these places. so skip work the next day, get someone to cover your shift, or just quit your job altogether*. see you soon!

i am wasted but i’m ready

Damn. This weekend was great. Big ups to Restorations, Red Collar, Josh & Sarah at Treasure Fest, Monument, Scotty Sandwich, The Dougout folks in DC, and of course the Tiny Engines crew.

Got a few local-ish shows coming up before we hit the road in July.

Sat 6.9.12 - Weapons of Mass Creation Fest (Cleveland, OH).  We play at 7:50 with some of our favorite bands like Algernon Cadwallader, Into It. Over It., Hop Along, Empire Empire!, Worship This and many more.  Check the schedule here.

Sat 6.23.12 - West End Art Space (Ashtabula, OH) w/ Tigers Jaw & CityCop // FB

Finally, tour is coming together really nicely.  Check the dates/RSVP here.

We have 19 of 28 shows confirmed.  Most of the other ones are booked and we’re just waiting on confirmation.  We’re still struggling with a TX date on Sat 7/21 (San Antonio? Houston?) and also on Wed/Thurs 8/1 & 8/2 in the Bay Area (San Francisco/Oakland/San Jose/Santa Cruz).  If you can help out, get in touch:  SignalsMidwest@gmail.com.

I’m gonna go sleep through this week. See ya.
