ColSanders,

you may just get your wish about ATDI playing. Well, not at Funfunfun fest but my friend who is good friends with those guys said they(ATDI) have been talking about playing shows again and everyone has said yes so far except Omar, his the one holdout but also hasn't flat out refused. With 4 guys into the idea I'm sure they'll be able to convince him at somepoint. Maybe a headlining slot at next Year's FFF fest??
