September 30, 2009 – Los Angeles, CA – Influential rockers Thursday have announced an extension of their 2009 Common Existence Tour that will include a December run with Dillinger Escape Plan, Fake Problems and Endless Hallway supporting.
The Jersey based sextet recently kicked off their headlining US tour to sell-out crowds along the east coast where they “certainly provided rewards for the faithful” (SPIN.com). The band’s current leg of the tour will include a rare, album performance of their fan favorite release, War All The Time, in Los Angeles on Oct 10 and their classic Full Collapse in New York City on Oct 25.
Thursday continue their vigorous, must-see live trek across the US in support of the recently released Digital Deluxe Edition of their fifth studio album, Common Existence, which includes an additional five songs. Described as “a monster rebirth” (Revolver), “the band’s densest, most accomplished album to date” (AV Club), “the metaphorical cherry on top of a continually solid creative output” (Alternative Press) and “the band’s finest effort” (Metromix.com), Common Existence has cemented itself as 2009’s best rock releases.

ESCAPE THE FATE TO PERFORM AT THE BIGGEST TATTOO SHOW ON EARTH ON OCTOBER 2
September 24, 2009 – Los Angeles, CA. – Las Vegas’ most notorious rockers Escape The Fate will perform live in their hometown at The Biggest Tattoo Show On Earth in the Mandalay Bay Convention Center at 7:00 PM PT on October 2nd. Admission is free for Las Vegas residents.
The convention is a once in a lifetime opportunity to be tattooed by the world's top artists from around the globe. Industry icons from Japan and Samoa that are otherwise unavailable have been flown in to Las Vegas to work on convention goers. Other expected attendees include Duff McKagan (Velvet Revolver, Guns N’ Roses), Evan Sienfeld (Biohazard), Sully Erna (Godsmack), Billy Duffy (The Cult) and Jerry Cantrell (Alice In Chains).
The news comes hot on the heels of Escape The Fate’s recent announcement that they would join Hollywood Undead and Atreyu on “The Vatos Locos Tour” this fall.
Touring in support of their hit album, This War Is Ours, Escape The Fate continue their quest for worldwide domination. From their contentiously provocative video for their latest single, “10 Miles Wide,” to their outrageous antics and scandalous rumors that continuously follow them, it’s evident that Escape The Fate are one of the most talked about bands in the country.
With an album of hits under their belt, radio air-play building, and incendiary hometown convention show and a hot fall tour in front of them, it seems as though nothing stands in the way of Escape The Fate’s inevitable takeover.
Don’t miss rock’s most controversial band this fall!!

Pop Punk Stars New Found Glory To Tour With Dashboard Confessional
September 16, 2009 - Los Angeles, CA - Essential pop punk band New Found Glory has just announced a remarkable live pairing with Chris Carrabba's influential outfit Dashboard Confessional for a one of a kind North America tour with a proceeding headlining run of warm-up dates to kick off the tour in support of their new video & single "Don't Let Her Pull You Down." New Found Glory's recent Epitaph release Not Without A Fight is a triumphant return to form by the much beloved melodic punk band. The Onion AV Club remarked of their Mark Hoppus (Blink 182) produced album, "New Found Glory still hits hard enough to matter" while the Houston Press said, "these guys have distilled their sound wisely, tightening every aspect and embracing their ultra-catchy core."
In a time of ever changing lineups and near constant band breakups, New Found Glory is a refreshing anomaly, having maintained the same hilarious hard rocking roster for over ten years. As the band explains, "You fight with your mom. You don't hang out with her all the time. But you love her! You're never going to hate her. We're family. It might sound cliché, but that's what it is."
And with New Found Glory's dynamic new release, these five friends have without question reinstated themselves as premiere practitioners of riotous hook infused punk. And so it only fitting that they take their beloved prank filled energetic live show on the road for what will undoubtedly be one of the year's most heartfelt and electrifying tours. As the band explains, "New Found Glory is back to where we want it to be: we tour, we play music and it's from the heart."

ETID is asking fans with motorcycles to show up with to Epitaph's parking lot at 11:00 AM PT on Friday, September 18 on their motorcycle and join Keith as he hits the road on a Harley-Davidson Iron 883 TM motorcycle down to San Diego (about a 2+ hour drive) for the band’s show at SOMA (taking part in the ride does not mean you get a free ticket to the show). After the show, ETID will be staying at a KOA in Chula Vista, about 20 miles outside of San Diego, and the following morning everyone will ride back up to Pomona. Participating fans will have the opportunity to hang out with Keith and the band as well as be part of the video footage for the next ETID full length DVD.

“Having an opportunity to travel through California the way God intended is something I've dreamt of doing ever since I was a teenager when I read Jack Kerouac and wrote awful poetry,” says Keith Buckley. “Now with the help of Harley-Davidson, my band, Space Monkey Studios and hopefully a good amount of fellow riders looking to recapture the human spirit that was unforgivingly crushed beneath the weight of adult responsibilities, it’s all actually happening. God bless America.”
The bike run celebrates the release of ETID’s fifth studio album, New Junk Aesthetic, which will be released on Sept 15, and upcoming US tour with labelmates Bring Me The Horizon.
