Ooh interesting, this increases my hope that there'll be a short European tour at the end of the year aswell...

great.... I swear they forgot where they came from

ANY CHANCE of a UK tour??!

[Pat T 24]

Well to be fair, they didn't tour anywhere near that part of the country last time around.

[bareis]

They need to come to Latin America (Or just to Brazil... haha)... Then I'll be happy. XD

SO MANY TIMES THIS!!

I just checked this. A week in August 2009, 3 weeks in September/October, then a week in December. And now another two weeks touring America! Where the f*ck are you from.The November UK tour was awfully short as it is.

[xxhuwxx]

having said this, I cant see them doing a whole album tour and doing just one UK tour, they might come back in may or sometime and do like more theatre type places perhaps

[Pat T 24]

How much bigger is the US than the UK? 10 times? 15 Even? It takes a while to tour the whole damn thing. Be patient, they'll come back.

Yeh good point, but still rather annoying for the eager fan that they've only done one full UK tour in the past 2 and half years :/

Ah well, hope everyone who's going enjoys it

Well if your counting 2008, that isn't fair because they didn't tour at all. But I understand.

ah, conveniently during my spring break I'll more than likely be attending the baltimore show.

Lucky! Have fun! Did you go to the 930 Club gig last time around?

The Florida gigs are on my spring break, I dunno if I could go.

I'm guessing they'll play My Propeller B-sides and promote that. But if this is the last run of gigs for Humbug, they can possibly play new stuff during it, as they did that in the last run of gigs in 07!

[patrickh]

Hopefully some new suff, tho I wouldn't be suprised if thy were just finishing offhe Humbug tour...

It might be a case of that they've got a studio bookedfor sometimes later in the year and wanted to get up to something before then...

Maryland = part of my backyard. Truly, an underrated state. Wayyy better than Dela-where. Though, I can't say I'm a huge fan of Baltimore.

Either way, this venue looks awesome. definately goinnng
