PiercingMetal Thoughts: This kind of news always brings a smile or should I say some “melancholy” to my person. I say that since HIM is so often singing about the sorrow inside romance but being completely honest I love this kind of announcement as HIM music was something very close to my own beginnings as a scribe. This band just “did it” for me with the first ever listen and I have tried to catch them on at least one of their regional visits when they come through our town. There were times when I would come to both shows but that isn’t always possible and sadly with this go round NYC is only getting one show at Webster Hall. It’s a big place so a lot of us can attend but like I said this bands fans like to go more than once. The band will be celebrating their early works with this tour and I think that is awesome and we shall be seeing expanded editions of these early CD’s on The End Records. I’ve linked some Amazon.com codes for you to pre-order them straight away. Of course if you should chance upon this post later on in time the links should still be valid. So what do you think about this tour and will you attend? If you answered “yes” I will see you in New York City for sure
