This may be old news but I would be remiss if I didn't mention something about My Bloody Valentine touring North America. Yes, the 2nd best shoegaze band ever(congratulations Slowdive), will play the big cities this Fall: L.A., NYC, SF, Chicago, and uh, Toronto? What has Seattle and Miam- just Seattle- done to you Kevin?! Sale dates and prices aren't available as of yet. Also not available is a detailed explanation as to the reason they chose Roseland in NYC for their grand reunion tour. Roseland?
Dates:
9.22 New York, NY: Roseland9.23 New York, NY: Roseland
9.25 Toronto, Ontario: Ricoh
9.27 Chicago, IL: Aragon Ballroom
9.30 San Francisco, CA: The Concourse
10.01 Los Angeles, CA: Santa Monica Civic
10.02 Los Angeles, CA: Santa Monica Civic
In not-so-related-news, the winner for best album title so far this year goes to The Brian Jonestown Massacre for their latest release, "My Bloody Undergound." Even funnier is that it already has a wikipedia page of its own. The blatant intentionality of the name is just hilarious. That's Anton Newcombe for you. What I don't get is that if it's supposed to pay homage to The Jesus and Mary Chain as well, where's their spot in the album title? "My Bloody Underground's Mary Chain"? Come on Anton.
