Lovedrug Supporting Sparta and Straylight Run (With Edward Scissorhands inspired music?]

04/23/07
. (PR) Lovedrug has snagged the sole support slot on the Sparta/Straylight Run national tour, kicking off May 28 in Tempe, Ariz. This comes immediately after a handful of headlining dates following their extensive tour with the Plain White T's, supporting their acclaimed LP, EVERYTHING STARTS WHERE IT ENDS (The Militia Group).

[Interesting side note. We received this email from a reader last week: "I was talking to some of the guys from the fairly popular indie rock band Lovedrug and they mentioned that their album is based on the Tim Burton movie Edward Scissorhands and that their music fits up to the movie perfectly. Here is the kicker though...it matches up best when the cd/ipod is on shuffle. They mentioned that you can even better the experience by
turning on repeat so it plays for the whole movie. That's how perfect it is." We haven't tried it out but sounds pretty cool]
