I got an email today from a man named Matt:

“This run with Dir En Grey will set the stage for Fair to Midland’s first full-length album on Serjical Strike Records, set to hit stores in early 2007. The forthcoming album is being produced by David Bottrill (Tool, King Crimson). Recently, Fair To Midland released The Drawn And Quartered EP on Serjical Strike.

The final touches for a contest to send some lucky fans to Los Angeles to be a roadie for the last day of the tour in Los Angeles on February 23^rd! More details to come. FTM and Dir En Grey are in works to launch a special web site for the tour to allow fans to track the tours progress and get all the latest news on both bands.

For more information on Fair to Midland check out their website at www.ftmband.com or www.myspace.com/fairtomidland.
