Thank You

Hello everyone,

Our Midwest tour has come to an end, albeit slightly earlier than we had anticipated due to Hurricane Irene.  We had an absolutely amazing time and have about a million people to thank, so bare with us as we do just that.

Huge thanks to the following people for either putting on a show for us or letting them stay at their place for a night:  James Gaskill, Sarah, Andrea and Alex, the dudes in Mirrors, Greg McKillop, Brian DiCrescenzo, Nick Ramirez, Nick Racino, Greg Gebhard, Kevin’s parents, Derek Lancioni, James Schultz, the Suns dudes, Estelle, Kaleb Brinegar, the Bella Verona crew, Everyday/Everynight, Dub, Zoo Bar, Ethan’s parents and aunt, TJ Fulfer, Jared Bowers, Austin Sparkman, Nick/The Fire, Mike Myers, Joe Francolino, Tiffany Ford, Mike’s parents, and The Chocolate Factory.

A special thanks to the bands Suns, Gifts From Enola, Let Me Run, Everyday/Everynight, 2194, Sunlight Ascending, theendoftheocean, and Charles the Osprey.  Check out all these bands immediately.

Finally, thanks to everyone who came out to a show, bought a shirt, grabbed a poster, shook a hand or chatted with us, or just gave us 30 minutes of your time and watched us play.  The generosity that people showed on this tour was something none of us expected, but all of us appreciated more than we can express.  We’re looking forward to seeing you all again in the future.

Thanks again.

~Dan, Mike, Ethan, Kevin, and Dan.
