After those two shows I’m confident we’ll get our Dreaming Trees and Busted Stuffs down the road.

2/45 shows complete and people are saying this tour is fucked and that these shows weren't diverse enough is just...well par for the Ants course I guess. Ridiculous mindset, especially how tight they've sounded + a ton of the boxes checked that we as a hardcore fanbase have been demanding for years IN ONLY 2 shows.
