UK/Europe tour with Strike Anywhere

As Friends Rust then reunited with Strike Anywhere for a five-week European and British tour from late October to early December 2001, supported by Planes Mistaken for Stars during the first leg and Durango 95 for most of the European shows. In promotion of these shows, British record label Golf Records reissued the band’s earlier compilation album, Eleven Songs , on compact disc on October 22, 2001. A highlight performance at London, England ‘s Camden Underworld from November 16, 2001, was filmed and later released on video and DVD by British home video company Punkervision on December 17, 2002. The chemistry shared between As Friends Rust and Strike Anywhere on tour also gave talk to releasing a split single by the two bands, but it never materialized. As Friends Rust played its last show of 2001 at Gainesvillefest in Gainesville, Florida.
