Since the Ataris aren't touring as a band, Kris Roe decided to do a Blue Skies, Broken Hearts, Next 12 Exits acoustic tour for eastern Canada through July. Well I went to it in St.Catharine's Ontario and it was awsm. Since it was only an acoustic show there weren't many people there, but it was still wicked. I can't remember the set list exactly but it went something like this:
- Losing Streak
- 1*15*96
- San Dimas High School Football Rules
- Your Boyfriend Sucks
- I Won't Spend Another Night Alone
- My Hotel Year
- Summer Wind Was Always Our Song
- Unopened Letter to the World
- So Long, Astoria
- I.O.U One Galaxy
- Broken Promise Ring
About 3 quarters through the show, he broke a string but still kept going. Basically, I got their as soon as the doors opened at like 7PM and he was there too. He setup his box full of photography that he sells and I bought 3 pics. After that, I just chilled with him the whole night until he went and played. He just a cool person to talk to, really down to earth. Anyways, after the show, he said he was going down to Niagara Falls to hit up some strip clubs.

Re: The Ataris [Kris Roe Acoustic Tour]
ye, taylor guitars are like $4000. Anyways, most people believe Kris copied jimi hendrix since hendrix just plays a right handed guitar upside and restrung for a lefty but Kris doesn't actually restring the guitar for a left, which is crazy. i also have a pic of me getting a pic with him but im too lazy to upload it
