Those of you that may have seen either the press release or any info out there about the tour may find yourself scratching your head a bit about the shows format. We tried to keep it simple but as is our custom, its just not always that simple!! SO I thought I would post up some additional info to make sure that there was absolute clarity about what shows would be going on where-when.

First off, the 2 night format is about playing the most songs over 2 nights that would hopefully create very distinct shows from one another. No song will be repeated means exactly as it sounds, if you go to show #1 of a 2 night stand (black sunshine!), you wouldn’t hear anything on night # 2 (white crosses) that you heard song-wise on the first night. The cities where we are playing only 1 show will feature an amalgamated show that will most likely have some songs we won’t be playing in the 2 night format shows, but take from both the sunshine and the crosses show. Get it? I hope so…cause its a lot for us to digest as well.

Below is a list of shows, where I’ll highlight just for overkill what show will be taking place:

Sunshine, Cross, or SS (special show for the one offs)
