Heavy Temple & Crystal Spiders Announce Fall Tour
So yes, Heavy Temple and Crystal Spiders hitting the road together, with the latter playing …In the Key of Doom in Brooklyn and both bands appearing at Grand Rapids Doomfest is killer, right? Two rad bands, marauding through the Fall-season countryside of the Northeast and Midwest for nine shows in nine days — very cool. It’s a no-brainer.
But putting that aside for a second, look at the bottom of the post. You’ve got links and players, as usual for a news piece, but I feel like when I’m talking about something two bands are undertaking together — like this tour — I never know how to organize that part of the thing. Do I put the band links together, then label links? Do I do one band’s links (including label) and player together? Cut out the labels entirely to avoid confusion?
I know nobody thinks about this crap except me, and that’s my point. I’ve been harping on this for years now. Imagine being so hung up on that kind of thing. Imagine that’s your life.
I still don’t have the answer. It never looks ‘right’ no matter how I put it.
But it’s a good tour, so even without a go-to answer for formatting outbound linkery, here it is:
