No dates in the southwest U.S. That's disappointing but understandable. Based on their last tour in 2009, turn out was pretty low.

In Tulsa that year, they still put on a helluva show even to a near empty house.

I can't remember which way they were headed, but they had said the last few shows were pretty rough attendance wise.

Glad yours was good. My band at the time was one of the openers, and ticket sales were tough as sh|t.
