The Starting Line are getting back together to perform at the Soundwave Festival in Australia in February of 2011. Guitarist Matt Watts commented:
We can’t tell you how excited we are to head to Australia and share the stage with each other once again. Before everyone gets the wrong idea, this doesn’t mean that TSL are back together, and that we plan on doing a US tour any time in the near future. We’re all close friends and didn’t want to pass up this opportunity to hang out, have fun, and play with some really great bands. We’re all looking forward to spending time together, talking about the future of TSL, and playing songs that mean so much to us. Your support means the world to us, thanks for being patient…and I hope to see many of you in Australia!
The band last released the CD / DVD Somebody’s Gonna Miss Us in 2009.

Week 16: Gib Fest! If you only had one thing? If you don’t play a mutation, why?
Gib Fest
Blast the infected to shreds with M60s.
Swords can slice up some fun. Chainsaws can tear apart the infected. But you need to get close for both and well? chainsaws are really loud! Time to go with the ultimate gun, you and three friends armed with M60s and unlimited ammo. This is going to get messy.
If you only had one thing?
Last weeks question was – Ignore the game for a minute. This is real world zombie apocalypse. You fought your way to a boat and boarded. You are unbitten. You are heading towards an Island in the Keys you hope is deserted but you have no idea. If you only had one thing you could wish to be on the boat with you heading towards that Island – what would it be?
Since the numbers are similar on both platforms we combined them:
56% Zoey
22% Shotgun
13% Ellis
7% Health Kit
2% Defibrillator
While we would have taken Ellis over the shotgun ourselves, this voting makes sense. Almost. I have to ask the 2% who voted for the defib. If it was for you, who was going to use it on you? If it was for someone else, were you really going to walk around looking for a random dead immune Survivor to resurrect? Either way, you scare us.
If you don’t play a mutation why?
We did an update to our web blog this week about Mutations. While we go into more detail there, we are curious. If you don’t normally play Mutations, what is the main reason why?
Next Week’s Mutation: Iron Man
