YES! YES! YES! Fucking so stoked to catch that Vancouver show! Wow, how unexpected. I will selfishly take this opportunity to also bitch about Epica opening. Seriously, whose wise idea was that? A smaller melodic death metal band would have been perfect, what about some of their Finnish contemporaries like Barren Earth? Oh well, I'm really excited to finally see Insomnium.

Of course they aren't coming to my area. The bands I like tend to skip my state. If a band does come, I often can't go. Oh well, I still have Iron Maiden in June, which I care most for.

Eastern Canada and Vancouver aren't the only damn places in Canada.

Of course they are...

Great thing about living in New York: Nobody skips it.

I don't mean to bitch again, but I was just looking at some Insomnium setlists and it seems they straight up don't play anything off their first two albums... which are my favourites

My band (Alestorm) is also doing a few extra off-tour dates with support from Insomnium (no Epica, System Divide, Destiny Carrot). They are as follows:

October 24th - Kingdom - Richmond VA
October 28th - Mavericks - Ottawa ON
November 1st - Broadway Joe's - Buffalo NY

Come to these, please. We'll both have longer sets.

I'm shocked at all of the high review scores this band has. It's another one of those riff-less melodeath bands like Amon Amarth. If you can't hear why they're touring with bands like Epica, there's some serious denial going on.

Now if you did one of these in Seattle, I would go. I can tolerate you guys and enjoy Insomnium, but those others ruin it.

Everyone wants their cake and to eat it too. This is Insomnium we're talking about here. Who the hell cares how shitty the other acts are, it's INSOMNIUM. They never play in North America so this is could be a once in a who-the-fuck-knows-how-long chance, and people are going to pass because they can't tolerate the other bands? Weak.
