Hello everyone, I hope you had a great summer and welcome to the second segment of the Spafford Six-pack Series on Spaffnerds.com, Oktoberfest Edition. For those you who remember the Summer Six-pack, we will be keeping a similar format, but this time around we will be focusing on Spafford shows from the month of October. This October, Spafford will play 22 shows, some of which will surely be instant classics. To get your minds and bodies ready, take a listen to these 6 shows from Octobers past, some classics, some less known.

Nerds, we are super excited to announce an AMA with @Jon-Rose on Friday 9/22 at 2PM Eastern. This is a chance for you guys to ask Spafford's primary print maker about... well... anything. The band just released an official video which shows the artist at work creating the VIP poster for the 11/11/2017 Globe Hall, Colorado show:

We'll kick off...

Today Spafford announced that the band will be playing a 3 night, New Years Run for the hometown crowd in Phoenix, AZ. I personally couldn't be more excited about this as I'm a new resident of the 48th state. Tickets are currently onsale and the shows have been added to the SpaffBase. Get tickets and meet me there.

There is also a CID package which includes brunch, soundcheck, and some other cool perks.

We hope to see some of you come in from out of town. I hear the Crescent Ballroom is a great venue and this should be an amazing time. Can't wait to see you Nerds there.

Setlist, Recordings, and Attendance from 9/9/2017 - Canyon Jam @ Mishawaka - Bellvue, CO

The word on Spafford must be out, officially I mean. I spent the better part of Friday and Saturday meeting new nerds who were in town for their first show. It sort of felt like one for me as well as I was seeing the band in a new amazing venue and it had been since April that I was treated to a show. I’ll add my observations to this review but do yourself a favor and listen to it without any distractions, then...

Well, I don't know if they'd go so far as to throw any of their colleagues into a microwave and watch them explode, but they certainly know how to get downright NASTY and this night was no exception.
