No Portland shows. Not even surprised anymore :(
now I am downloading the leak - I am so excite!!!!
Although they took out my favorite riff from Other People that they had been using in live performances. ):
My favorite has been "The Hours" for like 4 days now. I also love "Troublemaker" and "Myth" (which I'm kind of tired of since I was listening nonstop until the leak).
