Radiohead Announce More North American Dates, Additional Tour Opener

thubmnail icon: Radiohead Announce More North American Dates, Additional Tour Opener

Note to you concert lovers out there: If you want to see your favorite act over multiple nights, just become the biggest band in the world. Then you can invite them to tour with you and watch them whenever you want! This appears to be Radiohead's M.O., anyway. First the Brits gave props to Grizzly Bear, via BBC DJ set, and then came the opener announcement. Today's story is much the same: Thom has gushed over Liars (repeatedly), unsurprisingly they are tapped to open as well. Unfortunately it's not a three-band tour: Grizzly Bear's got the set of gigs from August 3-15, while Liars are tapped for August 19-28. Earlier dates appear to be with Liars, too (thx all). Full details on the August dates' venues and ticket info below.

08/01 - Lollapalooza @ Chicago, IL
08/03 - Verizon Wireless Music Center @ Indianapolis, IN
08/04 - Blossom Music Center @ Cleveland, OH
08/06 - Parc Jean Drapeau @ Montreal, QC
08/08 - All Points West Music & Arts Festival/Liberty State Park @ Jersey City, NJ
08/09 - All Points West Music & Arts Festival/Liberty State Park @ Jersey City, NJ
08/12 - Susquehanna Bank Center @ Camden, NJ
08/13 - Tweeter Center For the Performing Arts @ Mansfield, MA
08/15 - Molson Amphitheatre @ Toronto, ON
08/19 - Thunderbird Stadium @ Vancouver, BC
08/20 - White River Amphitheatre @ Auburn, WA
08/22 - Outside Lands Music & Arts Festival @ Golden Gate Park - San Francisco, CA
08/24 - Hollywood Bowl @ Los Angeles, CA
08/25 - Hollywood Bowl @ Los Angeles, CA

It's a TV/Movies/Web Shorts blog that launches tomorrow. Like Stereogum but not about music.

Stereogum, PLEASE! Do you know anything about pre-sales? What time do they go on sale, etc?

Tickets must have gone on sale sometime between 6:30 and 7am this morning. Right before the site said everything was sold out, I got 4 tickets for the Monday show at the Hollywood Bowl but it was pure luck as the server kept coming back busy. Hope some of you also got tix.

Quit Your Day Job: Ungdomskulen

The Bergen trio Ungdomskulen play proggy post punk, mixing chops and hooks with a sense of humor. But they don't sound like Primus. When I was in Norway a couple years ago, "Ungdomskulen" seemed to be on everybody's lips (or...
