The tour ended with all of us super bummed to leave such amazing friends. It was an awesome time touring with such great musicians and people. We were all ready to head home but, sad to leave our new homies.
On an even sadder note, The Dig just had some of their gear stolen out of their van in Chicago… Irreplaceable instruments, in that they carry a sentimental value as well as the fact that no instrument will sound or feel the same, particularly vintage instruments. It makes me sick to my stomach.
You can help though… Go to: http://bit.ly/9fkZW1
Search Craigslist Chicago… eBay… whatever. It’s not uncommon that these people are caught. (I know of a craigslist selling bike thief that was caught by the bikes owner)
Thank you so much for coming out to the shows! It was an amazing time… We’re on our way to Europe in a few weeks

Yea those athletes were really dumb… and that one surfer guy was like “idk they all sound the same” when asked what his favorite thrice song is… but Thrice had a great set, its too bad they only streamed two songs cus wood and wire was so great!
oh man… why did Thrice even bother? and i beg for wood and wire live soon!
that’s pretty weak. they’ll definitly try to sell online. I reccomend dig contact any and all pawnshops in the area as well.
For anyone who is interested: I did an interview with Dustin on writing when they made their stop in Chicago. If you want to read the unabridged version (along with Dustin’s take on the Lost finale) you can find it on my website.

Just go to ‘Work’ -> ‘Non-Fiction’ -> ‘Interview with DK’
they played wood n wire? oohhh man!!! thats so good to hear.
chris
awesome interview man
and if dustin ever wrote a book like that i would shit myself… that would be like the greatest thing ever
i would pay anything for that book! and how awesome would comics be? Didnt Dustin do the artwork for the alchemy index? i can seriously picture that style as a comic… unless im wrong and someone else did that artwork haha
of all the vids for people to put up. why no wood&wire? lets go!
That’s not right I hope they get some of they’re gear back. Anyway I can’t wait until you guys come back to Austin again because the last show y’all played was an amazing time. You couldn’t have said it any better.
@ Patrick
I thought Dustin did the artwork as well but then I found most of the drawings in some sort of Wicca handbook in a bookstore. I checked the AI liner notes again, and it said Dustin did the art design. But I’m sure he’s talented in visual arts as well.
Hey thrice! I need to download my bonus tracks again from beggars. My computer got rebooted and lost everything. I’ve been able to recover every track from you guys that I had but those. I’ve emailed vagrant numerous times but they haven’t contacted back. I know it’s asking a lot but would you be able to
Help me out?? I still have my code and all. Please help.

What does OBO mean? Is is like ONO which is Or Near Offer and OVNO which is Or Very Near Offer?
I can’t work out what the B is for..
@ Braunson & JM.
I had Russian Circles tickets, but they didn’t make the show, since their bus or truck or whatever…along with all of their equipment…got demolished a couple days before. Bummer.
Or Best Offer.
Haven’t checked in for a while – has there been any mention of when they’re planning to enter the studio?
The prospect of a more mathy record has got me all kinds of crazy excited.
From Chris’ Interview w/ DK
Any word on new solo release in the near future?
I don’t know. I’m working on a project now that’s not going to be the next Dustin Kensrue solo record, but something else. I’ll be announcing that fairly soon.
Any idea when we’re going to start hearing about you guys working on a new album?
Going to Europe after this tour, but I’m definitely starting to get in the thought process for writing. Soon.
Good interview btw
Hey to whoever reads this,
does anyone know the name of the Kevin Devine song that Teppei played keys for on their tour together?
I went to the San Diego show, which was amazing, but it was the last song from Kevin’s setlist.
and it was a pretty damn good song.
by the way, thanks for playing good shows
Michael V., what is your e-mail? I’ll get those bonus tracks to you.
@Samuel,
Brother’s Blood, probably?
@ Mike, Dude my apologies for your loss, standing in front of Brian Cook during the entire set before Boris made me think of when I stood in front of Eddie in Montreal on June 16th and reminded how much I love both of their bass playing/ tones. Both amazing musicians and I don’t even play bass lol just gotta respect when you feel your heart skip a beat cause a bass frequency coupled with a kick or floor tom just hits your chest in such a way as to give you the biggest smile of your day.
I wonder what the secret project by dustin is about?
If it´s not a solo record, is it another side project? Or maybe a soundtrack to a movie? Like when eddie vedder did the ost to into the wild. that would be awesome!
@ Chase
Thanks man. Sounds promising
maybe dustin is opening a dairy queen?
Thanks you for this wonderful post. Looking for more.
maybe dustin might have something to do with bad books? i mean the guys did tour with manchester orch then kevin. maybe he wound up writing a few songs with them.
Maybe Dustin is writing his own TV show and acting in it and writing music for it and it’ll be called the Dustin Kensrue Show OR This Is How You Do It (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na).
I’m not saying I’m putting my chips down on that.
I’m saying I’m putting my chips down on that and I really hope it happens.
I think the dudes should start their own cheese company. You know and have all the cheeses for sale when they tour. Good source of extra income
And calcium ^^
Russian Circles, Thrice annnnnd Cold War Kids!!!!
DOOOOO ITTT!!! Thrice is the perfect balance between the two :p
Kyle…
my man, that would be the perfect tour!
Ed, what is your stance on smoking weed? Have you ever smoked with the band?
