They were already on last night: https://youtu.be/5CQNE8ywTCA

They finally got back to me and said their warehouse isn't open to the public.

Thanks, that's reassuring.

Apparently Rotate This and Tiny Record Shop also have copies (according to their social media).

Yeah, I emailed Killthe8 as well about local pickup since I live on the east side too. But I didn't get a response either. I didn't think it would sell this much already. Now I'm in a dilemma on whether to buy one now or wait until next week and hope they still have some left over to sell at the shows.

Same price as the Twice Removed boxset. Gonna pick it up when I see them in Barrie next week. They're playing Waterloo in May, so it's probably better to just pick it up at the show if you can.

Here's what the indie retail variant looks like: https://www.instagram.com/p/BDifYmSN5vw/

Me too, man. I'm really hoping they announce some more tour dates soon.

Thanks, looks like I'll have to send them an email to see what's up.

Did you get an email shipping notification by any chance? I just checked my Paypal and I ordered it on Nov. 11.

Dang, I haven't gotten any notifications yet. Seems like forever since I ordered this.

There's still pictures of it on Instagram. Here's some more: https://www.instagram.com/p/BDZmcDUHGZR/ https://www.instagram.com/p/BDb9OCKwnSZ https://www.instagram.com/p/BDYJV3AhrGA/

Anyone try to meet the band yet on this tour? I recently found an OG Mellon Collie I'd like to get signed, but am wary of waiting around for a dismissive wave.

According to the hype sticker in this post, it looks like the splatter pressing is out of 1000: https://www.instagram.com/p/BDW2OAJR_Wn/ Would definitely grab that over the TRL red I ended up getting. Hopefully they'll have some whenever they come to Toronto.

Posted on their Instagram earlier today: https://www.instagram.com/p/BDJbjyLt7cC/

I hear ya, man. Been waiting 16 years for them to come back to Toronto and this is a huge blow. I'll still go to the show since I've already paid for my ticket, but it'll be difficult to enjoy it on the same level as before. And technically it wouldn't be a Mars Volta/Antemasque show since Tony was in neither band and Paul was only in TMV for a short period of time. Still a bummer though.

So apparently Jim Ward won't be touring with ATDI anymore: https://facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=854429451345859&id=208317689290375

The yellow variant is apparently out of 500: https://www.facebook.com/spacelabnine/photos/a.256862171135452.1073741828.250234825131520/615160415305624/?type=3&theater

Did they have any other albums for sale at the merch table? Probably gonna see them next week with Death Cab.

Basically he felt the article was inaccurate. I'm not going to wade into the debate (full disclosure: I work for Exclaim occasionally), but you can view his opinions here: https://twitter.com/PatrickPentland

Updated the op with more tour dates added (especially for those in southern Ontario). Exclaim also published this article that riled up Patrick Pentland enough to go on a Twitter rant: http://exclaim.ca/music/article/an_essential_guide_to_sloan

The 12" crate is now sold out.

Parallel Play can still be bought here: http://www.maplemusic.com/product.asp?dept_id=889&pf_id=885-50〈=EN

Can anyone who is seeing them on tour this week give a heads up if they're selling the coloured presses at the merch table?

This doesn't surprise me, especially after they were selling empty boxes to put the bootleg CD's in. I admit these look nice, but the prices are worthy of the ridicule. I can't even imagine how much it would cost shipped to Canada. Maybe if they drop the prices and have them at the merch tables on the upcoming tour, I might considering picking it up.
