im surprised that package shows like warped tour and whatnot don't cost alot more since there are so many bands and people involved so i think that
its fairly reasonable to pay a decent buck to see a ton of bands on a given day......you figure it would be 12 to 20 to see any individual band with a
couple openers, so why not?

RAMALLAH NEWS;
"Yep, you heard right, we cancelled our European tour this April. Mike has a broken wrist and may need surgery. Won't know until mid-month. We do have
some random shows booked in May, plus New England Metal Fest the last weekend in April. A Mexican weekend is in the works thanks to Fuerza Booking by
early summer. We are working out details for a makeup tour over the summer in Europe. Keep an eye out for news and updates."
