i think the fact that mcs' career is taking off and their popularity is growing rapidly leads them to headline this tour. it would also boot finch off the high horse that for some reason still places their popularity as high as before they disappeared for two years. as far as the choice to have mcs open for them i have no idea who put that together but it can only help mcs.

being from the uk, i'm surprised MCS aren't headlining their own shows.
Last 2 times i've seen them, theyve supported All American Rejects & Homegrown.

I think he thought you (BombOutOfBibles) were saying was that MCS should be headlining... when I assume you just meant that them going on tour with each other was strange. Which I agree, because MCS and Finch are a weird combo.

Yeah, I was thinking the same. Mind you, when I saw Finch, Brand New were supporting them!
I want to go to this, but it's not coming anywhere near me. I've already seen MCS twice so I'll survive...

it does indeed seem strange MCS are supporting. hmmmmmm. The guy who said about finch being on a high horse was right. I've now seen MCS 3 times (1xsuporting All American Rejects, and 2x supporting Blink-182), and on the 3rd time, the crowd went wild for them. THey should be headlining. But then again, they may not be headlining as they may have their own tour booked already.....hopefully.

they had a headlining tour last summer, which sold out many dates. the thing is, finch still sells out shows too, but they've been doing it longer.. oh well. finch is on a bigger label.

seems strange that mcs are opening for finch
I think its weird. And I 100% think that Finch should be opening for MCS. Think about it...Finch "just came out." hahah. How many times can someone bring Finch down for their enormous hiatus one post will ask following this one...infinite times.
guess ill be the only one supporting finch. it doesnt matter how long they took to come back out, a quality album takes time.
