Oh ..I've been there and its no worse than Richmond.
I thought you were talking about The Norva in VA beach.
I do wish that the Bullet For My Valentine show was coming to the Norva's sister venue here in Richmond but they did announce ZZ Top today and they own the shit out of Bullet so I'm good now. lol
"Enslaved: We will be touring extensively for the new album; this change of plans for the European start of the touring simply means another order of events and in the end more shows in total. We are looking forward to both sharing stage with Dimmu Borgir and also our headliner shows in 2011. We will keep everybody posted on the re-scheduled shows."
Sludge bastards WEEDEATER have announced several new headlining shows throughout the Midwest and Southeastern U.S. this September. Kicking things off in its home state, the band will devastate the crowd at Raleigh, North Carolina's Hopscotch Festival on September 11, also with PUBLIC ENEMY, TORTOISE, KYLESA, U.S. CHRISTMAS, HARVEY MILK and tons more. WEEDEATER will be dropping plenty of new material from the upcoming album on these shows, which will lead directly up to the recording of the band's new album, "Jason...the Dragon", with Steve Albini (NIRVANA, NEUROSIS, PIXIES).
WEEDEATER has been pushed to its limits over the past twelve months. While it's been a year of heavy and successful touring for the band, it was also a year of catastrophic physical injury to this seemingly invincible trio. Leading off with "Dixie" Dave Collins' shotgun accident which spawned the brutal "Nine Toe Tour" earlier this year, and continuing shortly after that with drummer Keko tearing his meniscus after returning from said tour and requiring surgery. Both of those accidents prevented the group's two previously scheduled meetings with Albini. The group's latest installment of injury includes guitarist Shep breaking his pinkie finger while on tour in Europe this July alongside BLACK COBRA and SAVIOURS. Luckily, Shep can still riff with his cast so the European tour and the recording session were spared.
These accidents have forced the band to push the recording for their now hard-earned upcoming full-length back several times now. Initially scheduled to take place in January of this year, then again in April, the trio will now step into Albini's Electrical Audio Studio this September 15-19 to hammer out their mammoth fourth full-length, "Jason... The Dragon", their second release for Southern Lord Recordings.
