I recently found out that there is an amazing upcoming show on New Years Eve in Sioux Falls ... It's amazing for three points, and I will list them in my favorite order:
One. The Glass Atlantic is RE-UNITING! That's right! I haven't seen these guys (obviously) since they broke up about 7 or 8 months ago ... they were one of the first Sioux Falls bands that really caught eye and part of the reason I became such a huge fan of the local music scene. I was crushed when I found out that they broke up, but I'm still friends with all of them and supported their decision. However, Landon (who joined the Spill Canvas) is home from tour for a break and will be reuniting with TJ and Phil to do one more show! I can NOT miss this!
Two. It will be Nodes of Ranvier's last show. Ever. The biggest thing to happen in the Sioux Falls hardcore scene is over. Since their signing to Victory Records last spring, many have seen Nodes slowly slipping. Even though Victory is notorious for breaking up or ruining bands, I don't think this was a complete fault of the record label. Things change. I know a lot of the band members probably want a simple, normal life. That's why the original lead singer quit: for a regular life. I am sad to see these guys go because their live performances are simply amazing, but I do understand that life goes on.
Three. It's ironic. It's ironic that a broken band is reuniting, and an amazing band is ending ... on New Years Eve. The night that you are supposed to spend looking forward to the new year and turning over new leaves. But, then again, I guess these guys are doing just that ....
