In celebration of Minus the Bear‘s 10-year anniversary, the Seattle based quintet is hitting the road for the month of October, into November with something special for their ever-growing fan base: To commemorate a decade of music the band will be integrating a performance of their 2002 debut album, Highly Refined Pirates, (in its entirety) into their full sets.

Since their formation in 2001, Minus the Bear have released several EPs and four albums, the latest being 2010’s OMNI, which garnered extensive praise from critics and fans alike. In support of OMNI, the band has been hard at work touring worldwide.

Ticket pre-sale is up now on the band’s website for all dates, and fans can add to their order an exclusive Minus the Bear t-shirt, or an autographed copy of Highly Refined Pirates on vinyl. The band’s first EP, This Is What I Know About Being Gigantic will also be released on vinyl for the first time.
