One of Australia's finest in my book. I definitely encourage you to check them out when they come through town. Given how much they tour chances are likely the opportunity will present itself. This was the recent tour with Young Widows. The Nina The Pinta (Mpls) supported. Please support the bands by picking up the official releases. Thanks to the bands and to The Triple Rock for allowing me to record.

After a string of touring obstacles (broken van, broken bones, the death of a friend) had kept Young Widows from playing their last two or three Twin Cities shows they were finally able to make it back. Buildings (Minneapolis), The Phantom Family Halo (Louisville, KY) and My Disco (Melbourne, Australia) rounded out the bill with powerful sets of their own. I was also able to record Young Widows at The Triple Rock March '08. Apologies on the lack of a set list here. Please support this tour if it's stopping anywhere near you.
