Coheed And Cambria in Edmonton

According to Pollstar the emo-prog band will be hitting the stage Friday Dec. 15 @ Shaw. Remiscinant of another emoish group (MCR) hitting up the praires to close the year out. I have seen Coheed once before, back @ the 2004 Warped Tour stop in Calgary. A drunk Claudio hit the stage and proceed to piss off the crowd with his antics. The bottle throwing got so bad that the group was finally cut off half way through the half hour set. Crazy moment. Read about it here, here, & here. No other dates listed as of now, I expect Calgary to be added. I wonder what kinda of reaction they would get now? If any? Time will tell.

That's Right, Guns N' Motherfuckin Roses Will Be Tearing Apart Rexall Thursday December 7. Tickets on sale this Saturday @ 10am, for way too much ($79.50 + s/c).
