CRASHDIET RIP-OFF THE CASUALTIES, ANNOUNCE FIRST U.S. TOUR
I was bored and clicking around on the Internet like you do, when I discovered two things on the Crashdiet site. First of all, I realized what their merch mascot reminds me of. I love you, Crashdiet and your extremely marketable new singer, but, um, you’re sort of ripping off The Casualties.
To be fair, every other punk band has done it too (The Exploited, Bad Religion, etc.,) but to be even fairer, you’re not punk.
Secondly, they’ve announced their very first U.S. tour. I whine about bands I want to see never crossing the damn ocean, but now I have to upgrade to whining about bands never coming to (clearly the best) East Coast. So far there are three November dates in California, Arizona, and, uh, Mexico. Hopefully they’ll eventually head over my way, because I’m too cheap and lazy to travel more than a short bus ride for shows. They’re supporting Pretty Boy Floyd, though, so it might not be even worth it for them to come to my side of the country. Just kidding, love ya Steve “Sex” Summers…
No, I don’t.
