The tour is now in California and continues through November 3rd. The show at the Maritime Hall in SF on Halloween has been canceled due to the venue losing its lease.

           The three shows with AFI this weekend were a lot of fun, but disaster struck on Saturday night in Santa Cruz when an idiotic kid shattered the bridge of Geoff's stand-up bass with an ill-timed stage dive. This occurred during the last song, bringing an otherwise cool set to a premature close. Tiger Army would like to thank whoever started or contributed to the collection fund for the basses' repair, it was a gesture that meant a lot.
           The band scrambled to find a replacement stand-up for the Sunday show with no luck, so the set was done Meteors-style with an electric bass. Geoff pulled it off with flair despite never having played the songs on e-bass and the set turned out to be very enjoyable after all! This was just an emergency measure however and the stand-up will be back for the next show. See you at the Galaxy Theatre this Thursday!
           The "Gigs" section has been updated.

           Tiger Army hits NorCal for three shows with AFI from March 9th-11th in Petaluma, Santa Cruz and Chico! Nick 13 is currently in the studio in Northern California recording vocals for the new album. Many songs are already completed as recording continues into March...           
A few friends have already come by to make guest appearances on the album: Davey Havok of AFI contributed some amazing backup vocals over two separate visits; Matt Freeman and Lars Frederiksen of Rancid dropped by one evening where they laid down backup vocals and Lars played some amazing slide guitar on the song "Power of Moonlite."
           Keep an eye on the "Gigs" section for updates in the near future, a lot of cool stuff is being booked all over California from March through May... See you in the wrecking pit!
