One of the nicest groups of people out there and an awesome band to boot. Glad they're getting some recognition.

They're touring with The Toasters this fall and we hope to announce a Syracuse date for that very soon.

yeah they have a different feel. the guy that plays bag pipes switches to a lot of other instruments in the live sets. does anyone know they game that they are playing in the "warriors" video? it looks like a good time.

BTW, even if something goes wrong with the Toasters/Pietasters/Mustard Plug/BTMI/Flatfoot 56 show, we definitely still have The Toasters w/ Flatfoot 56. The other bands were on tour as well and their show that day got canceled, so the agent is now trying to combine both tours in Syracuse that day. So, you'll see these guys either way. :thumbup:
