Black Pyramid Announce Two-Week Eastern US Tour; Not Coming to Jersey
…And you know, they’re fucking right. There isn’t shit happening in New Jersey for underground heavy music. I look at this itinerary and it’s good for them that they’re not coming anywhere near my home state. It’s a bummer that if I want to see them play I have to go to Brooklyn to do it, but what the fuck? They play a show in NJ and the five people with a fucking clue show up (myself included), it’s a waste of a night, the promoter probably dicks them out of money and they don’t even get free beer. Sometimes I think I really need to get the hell out of here. Maryland here I come.
By the way, here are those dates. They come courtesy of the PR wire:
Fast-rising doom rock trio Black Pyramid has announced additional May, 2010 US tour dates in support of their much-talked-about full-length debut Black Pyramid (MeteorCity). The power-driven band will launch a 16-city tour beginning May 5 in Wallingford, CT.

You need to see Black Pyramid play at the Mojo 13 in North Wilmington, DE. You won’t have to go to MD. Not but a mile or two off of I-95, a Mexican restaurant next door, and a Wawa down the street.
I am thinking of going to this show.
I’ll buy you some beers. I owe you at least one.
Mojo 13 is at least 30 to 40 minutes from Philly. Call it three hours +/- from your are.
