It better be a new tour. Hell, I've not seen anything since Dylan in April 2015. Nothing on the horizon except Wye Oak at Ottobar in June either.

I have it from a reliable source that it is indeed a BAGIA anniversary tour. Here's hoping Franz is involved. this is absolutely nothing but wishful thinking because I haven't gotten to see them live and I know that Franz has connections to them- how awesome would some dates with Against Me! be? I would literally drive anywhere in the US (and probably fly many places) for that show.

Yeah, I got an email. Lucky I saw it, I hardly ever check email.
Damn, had to sign up for twitter just so I could find out the news asap!

Surely I can't get as high as I got...
...at Reading 2007. I was watching Smashing Pumpkins on the Main Stage. Sunday night. Hungover. Spent. Fuck this shit. In the distance... I heard that song that I'd heard on the radio. Stuck between something or another. I'll check that out... I wasn't prepared for the epiphany. I text a friend "shit. You gotta listen to this band. They're like The Boss but they're punk too". It was a massive night.

Damm tBob, you keep some odd hours! (I'm just off to catch a train to London). Got two emails - doubly excited now! There'd better be good Wi-Fi in my hotel.

Also, never thought I'd say this, but I'm slightly convinced that "together" will be with franz.... Oh please, oh please, oh please!

Long time Lurker here, but sincerely excited about whatever news this brings. Today on FB they posted "Eleven years today, Seperation Sunday was released. Thanks for being part of it." No animal pictures so far today.

Does anyone remember a promise of reissues last year? In a Q&A or something. The question was along the lines of 'will you ever put out AKM and SS on vinyl again, and the answer was like 'we will be reissuing everything at some point'. I'm convinced I didn't dream it. Whatever this news is, it's epic, but those hoping for a Franz return, come back down to Earth!

Is it too obvious for Franz to be "together"? Man a lineup with Franz, Tad AND Steve would be incredible. Especially if Franz sticks around.

Hoping for Franz, but "together" could also just be all of them together - without Franz

A BAGIA anniversary tour wouldn't be complete without Franz... but I'm still skeptical...

Most likely "together" will be all five of them. And the best four letter word in the world...
TOUR!

Me too, now I've had time to consider it, but I've still got my fingers crossed! Regardless, at least this puts to bed all those shitty THS have split up theories.

Tomorrow's 6 years since Heaven is Whenever was released (May 4, 2010), and Heaven is Whenever we can get TOGETHER :-)

i'll always remember waiting in line on RSD to get that early press of Heaven is Whenever. it hadn't leaked or streamed or anything and it was the first time in a long, long time that i heard an album for the first time when i put it on the turntable.

Just spun that record today. Still love it and think it tends to be under appreciated!

I highly, highly doubt and would be shocked if Franz is back for a tour let alone for good.
I'll piss my pants with excitement, but I do think both those things are a very big long shot.
