Record Release, Tours, and Ryan Hudon's Staring Problem

This is my first post in the Verse blog so everybody go easy on me. Our new album has been out for almost a week now and speaking for the band we are beyond psyched. What we're even more excited for is leaving for tour at the end of this week with our good friends in Have Heart. Ryan Hudon and I will be riding in separate vans because we hate one another (not really) and, as I mentioned in the title, he has a staring problem. On our awesome summer adventure we will be meeting up with even more friends in bands such as Wasteland and ON and Foundation. All of these bands shred and I know you're all looking forward to seeing them do what they do just as much as I am. Our tour kick-off and record release show is this Friday, the 20th in Providence, RI at the Living Room. Here is a nice looking flyer:
