What an awsome tour minus cartel. Acceptance should have scanned 100,000 copies of "phantoms" that cd is so underated.

What the Fuck!

Cartel is much better than acceptance......I hate you for this!

[TheWoj]

i'm waiting on a Michigan date.
there better be a michigan date.

[I.O]

I think cartel is catchy as hell, and realy tight, but they dont realy bring anything that inovative to a crowded genre. The new acceptance is definitly its own thing.

[RockVocalPower]

Jared doesn't respond to my IMs...sad.

cartel is fucking awesome, but i agree that acceptance should have sold more, great cd.

[adelphi_rocks]

hopefully a grand rapids date

What the Fuck!

i understand your frustration. it was a silly statement. if i had to choose which was better between cartel and acceptance i don't think i could do it. cartel is so fun, but acceptance is just so wonderful... i just couldn't pick. i'm just glad 2 sweet bands are on the same sweet tour. TREOS wrecks it too.

The Norva
Norfolk, VA Find Tickets

I'm freaking there.

[h8redsoul]

too bad the Norva eats bags of dick daily

how????????

they're just another pop-rock-piano grounp. Theres tons of em.

I love Acceptance but, I think Cartel has an edge.

and Acceptance is shitty live......

[Ratherbedead22]

What the Fuck!

Cartel is much better than acceptance......I hate you for this!

hey, i like them both equally. much love for the both of them. plus, fucking TREOS is on the tour. this is gonna be a majorly radexcellent tour.

[Luckie St]

too bad the Norva eats bags of dick daily

whaaaaaaaa. I think the Norva is an alright venue.

I think acceptance is getting a lot better live.

[h8redsoul]

whaaaaaaaa. I think the Norva is an alright venue.


you can't be serious.

the 3 foot barrier
the 4 foot gap between the barrier and the stage
the dick head staff
the 6 dollar red bull

[Augustine Rock]

What the Fuck!

Cartel is much better than acceptance......I hate you for this!

Slade, I almost always agree with you, but on this one I have to ask, are you high?

[Luckie St]

you can't be serious.

the 3 foot barrier
the 4 foot gap between the barrier and the stage
the dick head staff
the 6 dollar red bull

but the sound is good.
the staff are only dicks when you act like a 12 year old trying to be danceXcore to Story of the Year or something.
And you can expect high drink prices at some venues. It's normal marketing.
The Norva is a good venue for what it is.

[hideyourheart]

Panic! at the Disco and Augustana are also on this tour, correct?

[SLADE775]

Slade, I almost always agree with you, but on this one I have to ask, are you high?


( sniffs shirt ) no......

I was dissapointed with Phantoms.......Im sorry if no one agrees, but I just had these expectations that couldent be met I guess.

black lines had this feel to it.....phantoms does not have it all.

true
drink prices are expected

the staff are dicks .. they kick out stage divers

but you didnt comment on the rediculous stage dimensions and the distance between the crowd and the stage

Panic! at the Disco and Augustana are also on this tour, correct?
so says thenorva.com

[Augustine Rock]

yeah you may be on your own on this one. And I have seen Acceptance live one time, about a month ago, and they were excellent.

[desh412]

....and Acceptance is shitty live......

You cannot be serious.

[SLADE775]

You cannot be serious.


when I saw then in roseville CA.

- sound cut out twice
- no crowd involvment
- couldent hear the keyboard
- vocals were off
- too too long setting up
- only 5 songs
- all around boring

= bad live show.....ill give em another chance when they come around here.

[Luckie St]

( sniffs shirt ) no......

black lines was freaking sickkk

[jeremyfromva]

Yes...the staff at the norva suck but the actual quality of the venue is amazing...in terms of sound and size.

[KarateExplosion]

does anyone actually read what SLADE775 writes half the time? the kid posts more inane comments than anyone else on here.


also, just to note, i've seen acceptance twice, in both indoor and outdoor venues, and both times they sounded just like the cd and were amazing.

Jason probably has one of the most amazing voices in music today; live and on disc.

agreed. Phantoms was good for about a week, then it got boring. It's production is overbearing in some songs (Different) and most of the songs just lack any sort of energy or originality, in my opinion. At least with Cartel, I feel like I'm listening to a band who is inspired. Acceptance's live performance (at least on the Copeland/Lovedrug tour) did nothing to make me think otherwise.

They still are a good band, I just think they're capable of so much more. Nobody should miss this tour though, since TREOS and Cartel are great to see live, and from what a lot of other people say, Acceptance is hit or miss and they might be on the night you see them.

[KarateExplosion]

yo jared are you going to that kings of leon show in d.c. next month?

[twe]

ooooo St. Pete is sort of far away, but i just might have to make the drive. hopefully they'll just stop by Jacksonville too and i won't have to.

[Augustine Rock]

yo jared are you going to that kings of leon show in d.c. next month?

I hope Jared knows better. Kings of Leon are horrid.

[Jared Kaufman]

yo jared are you going to that kings of leon show in d.c. next month?
I'm not a Kings of Leon fan in the slightest bit. Sorry!

[n8showoff]

man, when I hit read more/replys button, I thought I'd see at least 6-7 dates. theres a science to wording (couple=2; few=3; bunch=?; batch=usually by the dozen i think, or at least 6).

and I also thought for once that there wouldn't be an arguement over whether these bands suck or not. they obviously don't.

[FrancesdaMute]

well...yet another tour where treos trumps the headliner. the worst was when rocket summer was the headliner and gatsbys and treos supported. honestly...what the fuck.

[KarateExplosion]

the kings are pretty fun, actually.

and augustine_rock, the band opened for u2 on their last tour. they obviously aren't horrid.

dresden dolls are horrid. mc lars is horrid. lucky boys confusion is horrid. KoL are not horrid.

[1000shadesofred]

ill give I.O points for acceptance being its own genre kinda cd... cartel is like other bands, but they def bring a little extra UMPH to the table persay... cartel is gonna be the next big thing like fallout boy

[Augustine Rock]

Just because crazy ass Bono likes them doesn't make a band good. I will agree with you on those other bands though.

[ishotthepilot]

cool, it's definitely east coast then. that will be a good night.

bunch=at least 5. a 'batch' must be more than that, so i feel a little gyped too.

I think cartel is catchy as hell, and realy tight, but they dont realy bring anything that inovative to a crowded genre. The new acceptance is definitly its own thing.

i think being catchy as hell and really* tight is nice to do. anyone can write a catchy song, but Cartel writes catchy songs with staying power that arent complete fluff and filler. i think that's awesome.
acceptance is a weird thing. its kind of like Moments in Grace, know them? like a review on Hearts and Sleeves said about MIG, it's has incredible vocals and is just amazingly good, but it's almost monotonously good. like sometimes the songs seem to run into each other... i dunno.

[MYJOBBLOWS]

Once again, TREOS will own another tour. hee-haw! 8=fjjj=D~~~~

[SLADE775]

yo jared are you going to that kings of leon show in d.c. next month?


You just lowered yourself to a point that i never thought someone could get lowered to.

you are officially a fucking waste of human life.

[xearlynovemberx]

sweet 3 fucking dates

haha i hope this comes 2 ny

[Make Out Kid]

( sniffs shirt ) no......

I completely agree with you. Phantoms was a huge letdown for me. Tho the one time i saw them (about 2 1/2 years ago with yellowcard) they were great live. Coulda been the venue where you saw them.

could be.....

I know.

[chokeychicken]

whaaaaaaaa. I think the Norva is an alright venue.

Compared to 930 club, the norva does suck giant balls. Even alleykatz, in my opinion, has an edge over the norva. Unforutantely, Norfolk beats out Richmond for all the good tours.

[last light]

could be.....



I know.


cartel....i want them, in a bowl of shaved hair and butter.

[lets ROCK it x]

hopefully a grand rapids date
that would make me so happy.

UMMM are u smoking crack? Alleykatz??? really? u must have fallen down the stairs one too many times...

The norva is actually nationally ranked as one of the better venues of its size in the country.

[piaffeprncess98]

I like the Norva. They don't care about cameras. As for kicking out people who crowd surf, there is a sign that says no crowd surfing. And it's not like it's hidden or anything. I will be in Baltimore and Norfolk. Good times.

[girl like that]

I'm thinking they better come to CA because that's a really awesome lineup of bands... especially P!ATD

hey I used to live in Fredricksburg! but i haven't been anywhere near there in over 7 years..has it gone downhill at all? that's what i've heard from some people


on another note..how come there's arent any new england dates? TREOS are from Boston and so you'd think they'd play an area show

[Luckie St]

haha. seriously. the norva is just freaking good. hands down.

[piaffeprncess98]

Well if by downhill you mean over-developed, crowded, and a shit local music scene with nothing to do, then yes. There are way too many Mcmansions and townhouses and like 3 Chik-filas in a 1 mile radius. It's just alot of stand alone stores in Central Park. It's kind of considered part of Northern VA now, there are alot of government people living here now. It sucks.

[ForeverInADay]

how????????

they're just another pop-rock-piano grounp. Theres tons of em.

I love Acceptance but, I think Cartel has an edge.

and Acceptance is shitty live......
hahahaha i love how Peter's in a kangaroo hahahahahahahahahaha

Also, I wish this would come to Toronto. :love:

[chokeychicken]

Ottobar > Norva

[glitteredeyes]

what is this? hating jenny tour? "lets go to the norva right BEFORE jenny moves into ODU" wtf. whatever. : ( i hope these shows sell out<3

[RedWineSheets]

Slade how come Acceptance is in your top 20 bands and cartel isnt? You probaly should update that.

[SLADE775]

yeah...yer right.

[desh412]

Good news Atlanta! We just got word that the tour is going to be at Masquerade on August 25. Get more show info here (http://www.indieaccessonline.com/Shows.php).

[resUrectMe617]

they are playing el corazon in seattle as well. the venue site has the date, i forget what it was...but yeah they get a date too

[em0_stars]

so much for a batch?

[SoL0ngSincerity]

are they ALL the dates that have been posted anywhere? a blazing 3-show tour might be interesting... but let's hope we can find some more.

[kapler23]

I am very excited for this tour...definitely hope a Detroit date comes.

[All Is Fa11ing]

i saw that tour with copeland and lovedrug and then i saw them again with saosin and i think its the crowd a lot of the time that makes and breaks the performance because they sounded great both times, but there was a much different atmosphere with copeland because they're less upbeat whereas saosin and anberlin are fucking amazing and upbeat

[Grybo]

They are playing the new brookland tavern in columbia SC on the 20th

[dumbudy321]

well...yet another tour where treos trumps the headliner. the worst was when rocket summer was the headliner and gatsbys and treos supported. honestly...what the fuck.

i read a lil bit of the comments and all i heard was cartel, no acceptance, no cartel. well guess what treos is, exactly like francesdamute said, own them all haha, im so pumped that they are getting soo big, but its funny how people only acknowledge it part of the time.

Anyways, treos owns, awesome guys, amazing cd, amazing live, amazing old songs that im glad i can still enjoy without everyone else hearing it ;) and so many amazing memories of the good old days in the somers teen center

hey I used to live in Fredricksburg! but i haven't been anywhere near there in over 7 years..has it gone downhill at all? that's what i've heard from some people

oh hmm i kept reading a bit and saw this, so i figured id throw out there that at their show with scary kids and the cadence and such in RI they said they wouldnt be back for awhile besides warped tour so im figureing probably late in the tour the will hit up NE, also rumor has it the my aforementioned somers teen center (anyone who has seen treos there understands) is reopening for shows sometime this fall so hopefully they will play there

[quitmyscene]

at that same show, they said they'd "probably be back in boston with cartel and acceptance in the fall"

obviously you have never seen acceptance live. the singer's voice is simply AMAZING. and their music sounds perfect. i just saw them with saosin and they gave me chills. you're an idiot. go give their aol sessions a listen.

[LeftWideOpen]

actually i own a pair of ears too believe it or not, and they're functional, and acceptance was a huge letdown live. jason whined the whole time about a member of the band not being there, and acted like playing on stage in front of us was the last place on earth he wanted to be. why should i support any band who brings an attitude like that to a performance?

[Bruycker]

TREOS is really really good,i like them the most...for Acceptance,i like them and i wasn't dissapointed at all with Phantoms,it's a great cd , but i've heard better this year,and i'm defenitly looking forward to Chroma... i'm not that familiar with panic at the disco...
