Wanting to stay in touch with fans as much as possible the band has started a AK tumblr, keep up on all AK happenings here: http://abandonkansas.tumblr.com/

“We thought it'd be fun to start a blog with a view into the day-to-day exciting yet mysterious life of a band. Tumblr is a rad way to stay connected right now and Chet is going to be posting pictures, videos, and journal entries with excerpts from our daily life as if you're right there with us on tour. He'll be keeping you posted on what we're up to while we're home as well. Follow AK on Tumblr and we will be looking forward to following your tumblr too!” explains Jeremy
