NOFX recently posted an update on their website in which they mention their plans on touring for the rest of 2007 including trips to Israel, South Africa, and more. The trips will be video taped for their promised documentary of their 2007 tour. The band also had this to say:
We have had a lot of questions from the UK so here are the answers. No we are not playing Reading and Leeds, we thought we were, but they seem to have given our spot to some other bands. (no-one in particular they just filled up the bill and ran out of space for us.) We are planning two trips across the Atlantic. August and September (Northern Europe Russia and Israel but no UK ) Then in November we will do a few UK shows (we hear the weather is much better then.) as well as Southern Europe and Southern Africa. Keep your eyes open for dates in a few weeks.
We recently caught up with Thomas Barnett and Rob Huddleston of seminal melodic-hardcore group Inquisition. The video interview was quite lengthy, discussing a plethora of subjects, so we’ve broken it down into separate segments. In part one, the band discusses the sold-out reunion shows this upcoming weekend, playing together again for the first time in over a decade, and what those attending can expect from the performances.
The Loved Ones recently described their plans for the coming months in an interview. According to front man Dave Hause:
We’re not really doing much else this year other than making an album and I’m glad of it because I think if we were doing a tour right after this it might be painful for me comparatively speaking. I don’t know.
The band will be doing a short string of shows this month before heading into the studio. Femme Fatality expect to have the new album completed within the next few months for a fall release. SourceContinue reading Stickfigure Records sign Femme Fatality→
