I will next year.  I'm coming to see you and Glen.  And Jozz. But I look forward to meeting the mighty Armo.  And then giving the midwest an earful of NW culture.

[Jaron]

Two things.

I hear that group Weedeater is going to play and I'll be in the ATL show. But, why? Why the fuck is Melvins not headlining all the way? Is Down that stupid? 25 years strong for fuck sake. So what if Phil is the lead singer? I never think this is right to see a better more experienced band open for another. It's like when I saw Napalm Death opening for fucking Devildriver or Type O Negative open for pussies Hatebreed. need I say WTF.

Roughly one month and change to go before we hear about the first show.   

By the way, have the melvins ever played Japan?  I bet they're big in Japan.
