She's down with the sickness

That’s right, kids. It’s a stormy motherfucking night, and your Uncle Chris is alone. It’s OK, though. Uncle Chris needs this time to figure his shit out. I’m a freakin’ mess, people. I figured it was obvious, from how much of a dick I am.

So, yeah, the lineup for this year’s installment of the Thrash And Burn Tour has been revealed, and man, could I care less. The dates are still unknown, but I will tell you what — I can’t wait to see none of these bands.

Here’s how the lineup’s shaped: We’ve got Winds Of Plague along with Chelsea Grin, As Blood Runs Black, For The Fallen Dreams, Upon A Burning Body, In The Midst Of Lions, and Like Moths To Flames.

Hmmm. I am not sure I like any of those bands. Maybe Upon A Burning Body. They’re not so bad. I hear Like Moths to Flames is a band I should check out. But I’ve heard that about so many bands, it’s dizzying. I may check them out, if someone backs up this suggestion in the comments section.

Oh, and remember how with Summer Slaughter, fans could vote on the last band that would be added to the bill through Facebook? The winner would serve as the opener, and people voted and it didn’t count because Revocation didn’t win? Well, they’re at it again with this tour.

You can now vote on what band you wanna see open. The list of possible winners includes Across The Sun, Betraying The Martyrs, The Devastated, Dr. Acula, The Great Commission, Onward To Olympas, The Plot In You, This Romantic Tragedy, Volumes, and White Arms Of Athena.
