Reunion indeed

Ah, the proverbial shout out: give it up for Fractious!

Our buddies from Austin, TX took time out of their own east coast tour to met up with us Friday night in Orange, CT for a show at the Corner Pocket. Though the lineage of both bands is very much intertwined, this was the first time we had shared a stage in quite some time (first time this version of SANCTION had ever done so, actually). Needless to say, sufficient ass-kicking and face-rocking took place over the course of the evening. All the obligatory cliches were met: guest singers, frontmen launching themselves into the audience mid song, chair climbing, and of course just enough curse words to piss off the parents (mine were in attendance!). What a way to close out the east coast part of the "Vicious Truths..." tour!

I am a little sad to leave the east coast (we leave for North Dakota tomorrow). This is where I grew up, after all, and I really do love it here. For now, however, I will bid thee a fond farewell. Thank you to EVERYONE over here who made us feel welcome and to all the new friends and fans that helped make this leg of the tour a huge success. You guys are simply amazing. Not to be redundant, but we had a f'n great time and we will definitely see y'all in the fall!

- Jay
