So Nile’s Those Whom The Gods Detest North American headlining tour kicks off tomorrow (Jan. 15th) and unless you are totally unaware, this line up kills. To me it does, but there was just one band that I didn’t have any enthusiasm to see. I saw Abigail Williams live one time, for a few songs anyway, and they were good. The problem is that I just can get in to them for some reason. I was prepared to check them out again and hope that maybe this time would change me, but that chance is gone.

Apparently Abigail Williams’ drummer, Ken Myers injured himself. No details on the exact injury, but the band has pulled out of this tour. Moving on, this just leaves me with one question; who will replace them? Will there be a replacement or will the other great bands on the bill just play a little longer. Either way, this is one of the first shows that I want to make this year and just one of many great tours that will be rolling around the world. Below are the tour dates.
