I've seen them a couple of times @Marjo at a venue local to me

Sadly this venue couldn't book them for this tour as they are becoming more and more popular

They are excellent by the way....

I fully expect they will be a sellout...

Have you listened to all of their material @Cleoriff? I wasn't very familiar with them prior to noticing the ticket sale on Priority, and checked them out on YouTube yesterday. Some good stuff and I liked the songs I heard so far. I also read that sadly their lead singer passed away earlier this year so looks like it's been a super tough year for these guys.

Yes they cancelled the rest of their concerts when Timmy Matley died. He was only 36.

I love their music.
