Happy September, LSB fans! It’s time for an announcement around our October 2nd CD release party for Unreliable Witness. Let’s start by reiterating how excited we are to play songs from this new album, and to celebrate with three* other bands who are releasing records that same night – exactly one month from tonight! (Hey – tickets are still just $10 in advance!)
As we prepare for the big night, the health and safety of the band, Amsterdam staff, and our fans is of the utmost importance to us. After discussions with Amsterdam leadership, we have decided to require proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test (within 72 hours) for attending this show. We will also encourage following industry, local or national guidance surrounding the wearing of masks. We are all vaccinated and will be taking additional steps toward keeping everyone healthy and safe, and we hope you will do the same. Toward that end, we want to stress that for any of our shows, if you feel even slightly ill, please stay home. As much as we’d miss you, the safety of you and your fellow fans is more important than any show. If you need a refund for this show for any reason, please reach out an we will find a way to make that happen.
We know this is a difficult time for everyone, and we did not reach this decision lightly. As a band, we strongly feel the best way to be prepared for all situations is to get vaccinated, and we wanted our celebration of Unreliable Witness to reflect that position. We hope to see you there!
*Correction: our original post mistakenly said “four other bands”. There are four bands total on the bill, including us. Mike has been flogged for the error.
