The Bitch is Back!

We’re happy to announce that we’re bringing back the BYOB contest for the remaining dates on the Thrice co-headline tour.   Same deal: upload a photo of your dog via the link above.  The band will look at all of the entries and pick a winner.  The winning dog (and owner) will get to come up to the venue after soundcheck to hang out with the band, play catch, sniff around the tour bus, take photos, shoot the breeze, etc.

The "MOTH" poster

The 2-part poster from our two hometown Atlanta shows with Thrice.  There were a few left over if you’d like to buy one.  Designed and printed by Brian Manley of Fun With Robots.

Thank you everyone who uploaded a dog photo.  We had a blast.  Look for the return of BYOB very soon.   In the meantime, I leave you with this photo of Robert and his old friend Gip.

Kearny. Elm Creek. Overton. These are names of the tiny Nebraska towns that we’re driving through. On Tuesday, Chris and I left Atlanta with the van and gear. We’re heading out to Salt Lake City where our brief, midwest tour begins. The first couple of shows are makeup dates for postponed shows on last year’s winter tour with Brand New. I’m losing count of the number of records we’ve stuffed into the stereo.
