I saw The Ex last night, and they were probably better than any band I've seen in the last five years!

i mean, the ex had more people dancing than rupture did because they didn't fucking cut out in the middle of one song to play a fragment of another song. apparently we got some sort of truncated set from rupture too because they had to have time for the mediocre emo-prog band that opened up. thanks dudes.

You mean Aloha right? They've totally dropped the ball since they lost the dedicate Vibraphone player and started using the keyboard.

This question is for anyone that attended any of the shows, but mostly for those at the Minneapolis show. Was any Ex merchandise sold? I stayed for about ten minutes afterwards and saw none in sight. I was sad.

They sold music at the show I was at, I don't think there was anything other than that.

yeah unfortunately they didn't have any...i talked w.terry after the show and he said they'd shipped the stuff to the u.s. and it had gotten tied up in shipping, so it wasn't at the mpls date...
