american invasion

They have arrived. LAST TUESDAY just touched down in Dublin this morning. This band from Pennsylvania was invited to play at our (Church of Ireland Youth Department) all Republic of Ireland youth weekend called Anois. The band then built a European tour on the back of our invitation. You can check out their tour schedule here. They fly to Germany early tomorrow for their first show. This is my first re-entry into concert promotion since I was the Concert Coordinator for Taylor University back in '96-'97! All of the promotion is being done under the Dreamers of the Day banner. It's an area I had been wanting to develop within Dreamers for some time. This all feels good. God is good!. After the boys play Germany they'll come back to us for Anois on Saturday before playing three more shows in Ireland (N & S). After that they have some dates in England and Scotland. I was able to coordinate the Irish dates for them. LAST TUESDAY have a melodic punk-rawk sound that is very infectious. One of their music videos - 'Have You Seen Me' - is on rotation at TVU LIVE. An interesting bit of info to note is that Matthew Thiessen (lead singer of Relient K) and Joe Marlett (Blink 182 / Foo Fighters) co-produced their latest album Resolve. I'm looking forward to spending some time with the guys and hearing them rock out a couple of dates in Ireland. There is a map of the places they're playing above.
