what happened to you, mr brett? you used to sign bands because they were actually good, and they'd repay you by making great albums and generally making epitaph the best (and now biggest) independant label around.
now you just sign shit bands that are "in" at the time, who then go on to make shit albums and do shit tours, and begin to support the general consensus that epitaph is slowly turning into a shadow of what it once was...

Even though I don't listen to any of these bands it pisses me off how every show in arizona is always like the 1st show of the tour so I never hear about it until like 2 days until it happends.

Epitaph kinda blows now... =/

I'm thinking about going to this for Escape The Fate and I Am Ghost, not a big fan of The Matches however.

What the Epitaph tour should be:
Bad Religion.
Bouncing Souls.
Dropkick Murphys.
Pennywise.
Epitaph is becoming the next Victory records.

No dude Pennywise sucks.
But yeah, The Matches are excellent, even if they fit in about as well as a cadilliac in a doghouse on this tour.
