So I just found out that all of the bands on this tour are playing in Mokena, IL on April 11th, at the Pearl Room, of course with some other deathcore bands. Why would they neglect to announce that as part of the tour if they are all there?

I saw them last year when they were here. I didn't have a chance to go to Obituary though so I am glad they are coming back. Well I am going to the show in Wisconsin and the one at the Pearl Room the day after I decided. Because I want to.
