Official press release: We're proud to announce the first annual Think Fast! Records and Think Fast! Booking showcase tour. The full U.S. will start October 22nd in Boston and hit most major U.S. cities including a stop at The Fest in Gainesville. Outbreak and Hour Of The Wolf will appear on the entire tour and various regional runs will be filled with various other TF! affiliated bands (spanning both the label and booking departments). Think Fast! Records co-owner and Think Fast! Booking owner/agent Ryan O'Connor comments: "The idea of the tour is to showcase the diversity of both the label and booking agency. On one leg of the tour we have a thrashy/noisey band like Mountain Man, and then on another we have a punk/indie band like The Menzingers. That's the point. Hopefully people are exposed to bands they weren't previously aware of, and of course, we hope to create some more awareness for our label and booking agency as a whole." Aside from Outbreak and Hour Of The Wolf appearing on all dates, regional runs will be filled with The Menzingers, Mountian Man, Smartbomb, Reignition, and Red City Radio. The tour is proudly being sponsored by MerchNow, PunkNews.org, Lambgoat.com, AMP Magazine, and Imprint Indie Printing.
