MBV Comeback.

Soz to be all British and that.

sarcasm generator still on.

Sonic Youth has stopped with the Daydream tour and are back to new material;

And they did 40 minutes of post-Rourke material as the encore for the Daydream DLB shows.

Part of me can't help but think one of the most awesome things in the world would be

yer man Trayce saw They Might Be Giants in Melbourne six years ago, where for the second night of a two-night run they opened by playing Flood in its entirety. But they hadn't announced it and apparently people were baffled so they never did it again.

(they'd done pre-announced, sold-on-that-basis Flood shows in the States before.)

Still no indication that MBV aren't going to be playing new shit at these shows!

ATP New York sold out in about 5-10 minutes...

we all wasted our time here, then

well, it also means that additional tour dates are more likely to be announced sooner than later :)

Additional tickets will go on sale in the coming weeks, with accommodations in a nearby hotel.

= next week, sez customer service.

So they're supposed to be planning "6-8 US Dates" dunno if that's including ATP, but I'm assuming another New York show, LA, San Francisco, Chicago maybe?, uhh???? Toronto or Boston/Philly/Seattle/Montreal/any ideas??

RED ROCKS

6-8 US Dates would not include Canadian dates, assuming there are any.

I think LA and Chicago are certain, and SF and Austin are probable. I think NY is likely, but not guaranteed, especially if there are single-day tix to ATP. Other possibles - Boston, Philly, DC, Seattle or Portland (or Vancouver), Detroit (or Toronto). Twin Cities? Miami or Atlanta?

one would presume MBV would be providing intensities in at least ten cities...

pocatello, helena, cheyenne, ft. collins, chico, and provo FTW

i like zeppo myself
