Luna Announce Reunion Shows
Luna haven’t played a show since 2/28/05, when Dean Wareham’s post-Galaxie 500 project bowed out at New York’s Bowery Ballroom. Now the lineup of Wareham, Britta Phillips, Sean Eden, and Lee Wall is getting back together for a short tour, though the location is a little surprising. Check the tweet from Wareham himself:
10 years since the last Luna show; we are planning a short Spanish tour for April 2015

That’s right, they’re touring through Spain, though Rolling Stone says dates in New York and other North American cities are on the horizon. In the meantime we have these Spanish dates. As someone who studied abroad in Spain for spring quarter 2004, let me assure you that April is a lovely time to be in the Iberian Peninsula. Here are the dates as posted to Luna’s official Facebook page:
And here they are in text form:
04/17 Gijón, Spain @ Gijón Sound Festival
04/18 Santander, Spain @ Escenario Santander
04/20 Madrid, Spain @ Teatro Lara (Son Estrella Galicia)
04/21 Cádiz, Spain @ Aulario La Bomba
04/22 Valencia, Spain @ La Rambleta
04/23 Barcelona, Spain @ Bikini
04/24 Zaragoza, Spain @ Centro De La Armas

Does this mean if Galaxie 500 ever reunites they’ll mostly just play Poland?
