BlakeFebruary 26th, 2010 at 2:25 pm

I’m just curious.
Do you think there will be another U.S. tour sometime in 2010?
None of these places are close to me.
=(

ErnestoFebruary 26th, 2010 at 3:09 pm

When will you visit Mexico again???? I couldn’t make it to your gig on guadalajara :(

JohnFebruary 26th, 2010 at 3:27 pm

why does the maxwell’s show have to be during coachella

PatsFebruary 26th, 2010 at 3:41 pm

Wonderful! See you in NJ or NYC, hopefully.

muffinsoupFebruary 26th, 2010 at 3:59 pm

No love for Texas. :[

ShannonFebruary 26th, 2010 at 4:29 pm

YAY! Already got my NYC tickets and am going to work on the Jersey date. Your last show at Mawells was life changing for me. :)

JackFebruary 26th, 2010 at 4:46 pm

Sasquatch? Please?

smsFebruary 26th, 2010 at 5:07 pm

I assume the Princeton show will be open only to students at Princeton University; can anyone confirm this?

SarahFebruary 26th, 2010 at 5:09 pm

Can’t wait to see you in TO. Let us know if you need restaurant recommendations….

marcelFebruary 26th, 2010 at 5:10 pm

no fucking philly date…..:(

kathleenFebruary 26th, 2010 at 5:13 pm

i’m seriously considering flying up to ny from florida just to see you.

BarryFebruary 26th, 2010 at 5:14 pm

Absolutely gutted to not see any TX dates on here.

AshleyFebruary 26th, 2010 at 5:40 pm

Whaaaa. You guys have a song named after the “Show Me State,” yet no dates in good ol’ Missouri? What is thissss.

HPFebruary 26th, 2010 at 5:40 pm

You’re in NY the same night as Owen Pallett! I’m torn!!

KiaMarieFebruary 26th, 2010 at 5:46 pm

:( there’s really nothing wrong with Utah. you guys really should give it a try…

seattle, here i come! see ya there!

JeniFebruary 26th, 2010 at 5:47 pm

I agree with Ashley.
No Missouri shows?
I am beyond crushed.

DrewFebruary 26th, 2010 at 5:52 pm

I just went from the happiest moment in my life to one of the worst. My favorite band, at my favorite venue….on my sister’s wedding date. AHHHHHHHHHH

ChristinFebruary 26th, 2010 at 6:02 pm

Aww man, no Southeast love again? Last time, the closest to Atlanta you got was St. Louis; this time, it’s Kentucky. Bummed out! Maybe I can make the Kentucky trip… maybe all of the Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Louisiana, Texas, et al can make the Kentucky trip.

JoshFebruary 26th, 2010 at 6:08 pm

I second Barry’s notion here. I’m devastated.

BarryFebruary 26th, 2010 at 6:20 pm

I am all for a Caravan Of Love to Kentucky. I’ve been busy working out the mileage and times all morning, right after I picked up my jaw from the floor.

ROAD TRIP YEAH

griffinFebruary 26th, 2010 at 6:45 pm

thanks for maxwell’s! So excited!

SarahFebruary 26th, 2010 at 6:59 pm

no ottawa? T.T i am disappointed.

lynnFebruary 26th, 2010 at 7:27 pm

Please please come to mexicoooo!

ChrisFebruary 26th, 2010 at 7:27 pm

amazing… no AUSTIN stop :(

AnnaFebruary 26th, 2010 at 7:58 pm

But what about Austin? :(

SeitzFebruary 26th, 2010 at 8:10 pm

Thanks for playing an early show in Chicago. Based on the timing, your show should be done by 10:30 or so, leaving me time to also hit the Apples in Stereo. I’m really excited for both.

aimeeFebruary 26th, 2010 at 9:14 pm

It’s sad to have you not come to Vancouver again. We all love you here. Now, how to convince my friends to roadtrip to Seattle.

Kyle SFebruary 26th, 2010 at 9:35 pm

Majestic Theatre is a hellhole crawling with dickheads, but I’ll take what I can get. Goddamnit am I glad you’re coming back to Madison.

aliceFebruary 26th, 2010 at 9:36 pm

ITALY EXIST!!

TimFebruary 26th, 2010 at 9:40 pm

Thrilled to death that Minneapolis was added

JoelFebruary 26th, 2010 at 9:50 pm

Minneapolis date is 18+. Sad.

AmyFebruary 27th, 2010 at 12:41 am

YOU WERE AMAZING AT KOKO!
Thank you :) x

ColinFebruary 27th, 2010 at 12:48 am

Gutted Detroits not there. Maybe next year.

AlisonFebruary 27th, 2010 at 1:02 am

I live in San Diego, but I am visiting my parents in Seattle for a couple weeks in May. You’re in Seattle the week before I’m in Seattle and you’re in San Diego two weeks before I’m in San Diego. This happened last year too. It’s like I’m cursed. Cursed never to see you in concert.

(When you’re in San Diego, try to eat at Pokez. It’s about a 30 minute walk from your venue, but if you have an extra day or a few hours to kill you should check it out. It’s a delicious Mexican place that is incredibly vegan-friendly. I recommend Joey’s Special to the non-vegans in the band. With the green sauce)

VictoriaFebruary 27th, 2010 at 2:06 am

Ahhhhh! You’re playing at the EL Rey AND Glass House! :D You guys have seriously made my year. I’m so happy. It’ll be my fifth and sixth time seeing you guys! <3

ronaldFebruary 27th, 2010 at 2:24 am

What happened to the southeast? Thought Bottletree was one of your favorite venues.

DianaSFebruary 27th, 2010 at 2:25 am

Seattle is so close, yet so far. Sucks that you’re not coming to Vancouver again!

ianFebruary 27th, 2010 at 2:51 am

what’s with skipping philly the last 2 tours!? we’re certainly one of america’s foremost cities! i would go so far as to say the foremost after new york!

Chris FFebruary 27th, 2010 at 3:54 am

Philadelphia! Oh well, I guess I could go to New Jersey.

Mark.February 27th, 2010 at 6:23 am

fuk yeh. Lovely tour, good luck lads, hope to see you in South America once again.

MarkFebruary 27th, 2010 at 6:49 am

No way “Drew”! Ive got the EXACT same issue…

hannahFebruary 27th, 2010 at 7:07 am

just bought my tickets for the seattle show. roadtrippin’ it from vancouver island.

tpsFebruary 27th, 2010 at 8:54 am

glad to see sparky making the trip.

hope your guys tour schedule isn’t as insane as the last one; all those back to backs on the west coast. crazy.

EthanFebruary 27th, 2010 at 9:14 am

I’ll see you in Burlington.

PetrelladFebruary 27th, 2010 at 3:55 pm

Holy shit, you’re playing in Laval Quebec (just off the island of Montreal). You just made my day!Thank you. Yeh………………

AudreyFebruary 27th, 2010 at 4:36 pm

sooo excited for the minneapolis show, i only wish it was all ages so my mom didnt have to bring me but at least you’re coming!!

AlexisFebruary 27th, 2010 at 10:24 pm

Laval??? Whoa, nice! I won’t even have to take the metro to Montreal this time!

Made my day!

CharlesFebruary 28th, 2010 at 2:19 am

so excited. already grabbed my tix for the glass house and the el rey! 3rd and 4th times seeing you live.

Wolf BlackFebruary 28th, 2010 at 5:52 am

Yes! Thank you, LC! PORTLAND!

meganFebruary 28th, 2010 at 9:32 pm

Sparky should open for these shows

ClairFebruary 28th, 2010 at 10:55 pm

I’m so happy that my AP test isn’t May 4th – that would have ruined my entire spring. :)

JessicaFebruary 28th, 2010 at 11:41 pm

I think you played one of the shows of my live on friday, it was so enjoyable. Shame there was no encore though! x

AnthonyMarch 1st, 2010 at 12:12 am

Oh man, I cannot believe you guys are coming in Laval! Is this some kind of big fuck you to Montreal? Haha. So awesome.

JeskaMarch 1st, 2010 at 4:21 am

OH SHIT COVINGTON I may have to make TWO ROAD TRIPS for these shows. But alas, at least I’m going to Chicago. Have you picked openers yet?

carlyMarch 1st, 2010 at 7:11 am

hey guys why dont you stop complaining?
it sucks if they cant come to your city but its not because they dont want to, its just somewhat impossible to play in EVERY city in the us

ClaireMarch 1st, 2010 at 12:08 pm

KOKO was incredibly fun.
But I feel terrible. Harriet’s name was not on my bag of vegan cookies for you all. HARRIET: HOW COULD I FORGET? I love your name, and the cookies were absolutely for you too.
Hugs for Harriet. I am terribly sorry.
No excuses.

ShawnMarch 1st, 2010 at 10:24 pm

When are tickets going on sale for the Minneapolis show? Making the 7 hour round trip once to just by the tickets ahead of time is something I’d like to avoid. I just haven’t seen any option to buy a ticket online.

PetrelladMarch 2nd, 2010 at 2:48 am

This is strange. The gig on April 19 in Laval, Quebec is being advertised as The Lemonheads. Once you click on the name to purchase tickets, then “Los Campesinos” pops up. Are The Lemonheads opening for LC?

JuliaMarch 2nd, 2010 at 4:41 am

Heh. So I’m not the only one with the “you’re playing in Laval!?” reaction. Also…not sure if it’d be funnier if “The Lemonheads” is someone’s inputting error or if LC! will be sharing a stage with Evan Dando. I checked, they have some dates posted for March, so who knows.

ElizabethMarch 2nd, 2010 at 5:06 am

You should SO come to Dallas…I’m just sayin.

PatrickMarch 2nd, 2010 at 1:12 pm

The closest show is 14+ hours away! Nooooooo! I swear, Colorado is right in the middle of all the assuredly crazy-awesome places you’re going to! >_<

AliaMarch 2nd, 2010 at 3:23 pm

YES, I CAN WALK TO YR CONCERT IN SD!

This just made my WEEK.

Andew TMarch 2nd, 2010 at 6:28 pm

What are you guys doing May 12th? Coming to Las Vegas to play a show? Wonderful.

JohnMarch 2nd, 2010 at 6:44 pm

GARETH! why no cleveland this time? will you be coming in the future? did something go particularly wrong for you last april? do you not like the grog shop as a venue? please come back dude, i helped you buy a beer during the show and was right next to you in the crowd. it was the most amazing experience of my life. can i PAY you to come?

AndyMarch 3rd, 2010 at 2:24 am

I’ve been waiting to see you again but you aren’t hitting anywhere within a state of Kansas. No Sooner State? No Show-Me state? Hoping for fill-in dates to hit the middle states!

Matt ScottMarch 3rd, 2010 at 4:34 am

Anyone know of a good hostel/cheap place to crash in Toronto near either the Phoenix or the Greyhound station?

DrewMarch 3rd, 2010 at 8:58 am

Anyone want to roadtrip from Minneapolis to Madison?

vanessaMarch 3rd, 2010 at 9:15 pm

Chicago and San Francisco tickets are purchased! So excited!

CharlotteMarch 4th, 2010 at 12:07 am

Without trying to sound like a 16yo groupie and I’m sure they’ve heard this before…

I find it really sad/depressing that LC hasn’t toured Australia. I mean, 3 studio albums and no mention of one, ever.

And when they do eventually make it down to Australia, they will be promoting RiB, meaning less songs from Hold On Now and We Are Beautiful – records which made me fall in love with LC.

ps. Yes I am aware that LC doesn’t owe us fans anything, I just find it sad that after 3 albums they haven’t been here. And compare that to really shitty bands who have been here after one. Where’s the justice?

JuliaMarch 4th, 2010 at 2:52 pm

Matt Scott: there are a lot of dingy hostels in Toronto. I usually stay at the Hostelling International on Church near Front. It’s about a 15-20 min. walk from the Phoenix and the bus terminal. Last time I stayed there was after the LC! show last year, actually, and they gave me the “midnight special” so a private room with a bunk was only $30 or something. As long as there’s nothing major going on, I’d say you’d have to problem walking in for a room on a weekday in April.

JuliaMarch 4th, 2010 at 2:53 pm

that’s “no problem”, of course…

JuliaMarch 4th, 2010 at 8:04 pm

alright, three posts in a row – I don’t think I made it clear that the HI hostel was nice. yup.

annieMarch 4th, 2010 at 11:50 pm

No Vancouver + no valid passport to get to Seattle = very disappointed LC! fan.

I was too young to see you last time you were here, and now you won’t come visit. :(

JoshMarch 5th, 2010 at 6:03 pm

I’m just disappointed that you chose New Jersey over Texas. NEW JERSEY.

Bren PikeMarch 5th, 2010 at 6:21 pm

Any Chance you all will make it to Dallas again It was a blast last time.

RitaMarch 5th, 2010 at 8:53 pm

maxwells in nj and the princeton place in nj are both 18+

RitaMarch 5th, 2010 at 9:01 pm

To say im disappointed about that, especially after i bought the tickets is a gross understatement

stationagentMarch 5th, 2010 at 9:11 pm

Gainesville, Florida is holding out hope.

petrelladMarch 5th, 2010 at 9:43 pm

Just got my ticket for the Laval gig (I still can’t believe LC is playing in Laval instead of Montreal). The strange thing about the venue is that there will be seats. What’s with the seats? Are we suppose to sit while LC is playing? This should be interesting. Can’t wait!!!!!!!!!!!!

KenMarch 6th, 2010 at 7:51 pm

Please, Please, Please come to St. Louis!

chrisMarch 6th, 2010 at 11:13 pm

no texas dates?

AudreyMarch 7th, 2010 at 4:46 am

First Ave in minneapolis has a picture of some people who are for sure not Los Campesinos! in their calendar as LC! also, its listed as 18+ so either you guys forgot to make note of that above or first ave is wrong…
just thought i would let you know!

KivMarch 7th, 2010 at 6:21 am

please come to Mexico city!!

KarenMarch 8th, 2010 at 5:47 am

Less love for south texas.. I’ll make it to one of your shows one day!

SiebelMarch 8th, 2010 at 7:43 pm

Yea screw Texas, go Jersey, but why no Philly

chrisMarch 8th, 2010 at 7:47 pm

people in new jersey hate new jersey

PeterMarch 10th, 2010 at 4:20 am

Missing a date around NYC on the 16th of April there :3

PabloMarch 10th, 2010 at 11:44 pm

WOHOOOOO!! is it real??26th may is BARCELONA!it is confirmed in PRIMAVERA SOUND’s site
http://www.primaverasound.com/ps.php?seccion=cartel&idioma=en

would you come to madrid too?

SamMarch 11th, 2010 at 8:59 pm

I just called the Phoenix a few minutes ago, for the Toronto show, and they said it’s definitely 19+. So confusedddd.

MadelineMarch 12th, 2010 at 4:25 am

Just got my ticket for DC!!! See you there!!!!!!

BrentMarch 12th, 2010 at 9:47 pm

Just got my Toronto tickets, it better be all ages like you say.

NickMarch 13th, 2010 at 4:11 am

You really need to come to texas again!!

BLMarch 14th, 2010 at 5:52 pm

st. louis misses you LC! :(

ZackMarch 14th, 2010 at 7:52 pm

Can we get a check on the whether the Toronto show is 19+ or All Ages? Everyone says something different

Bren PikeMarch 15th, 2010 at 6:06 pm

Consider Dallas again, third time is a charm!

DakotsMarch 17th, 2010 at 4:09 am

Damn Florida and all it’s inconviniance!!!

Yee HawMarch 30th, 2010 at 1:22 am

You don’t want to go to TEXAS! The place is full of simpleton hillbillies that look, smell, and talk funny.

Fucking Handsome Texan!April 3rd, 2010 at 7:31 am

Y’all should come to Texas!

Chester Alamo & CostelloApril 18th, 2010 at 10:56 pm

Looking forward to the show in Chicago at the Metro. A note for Gareth: We met last year at Lollapalooza. I am the LFC supporter (Chester) whose married to the MU supporter (Sandy). Anyway, the book – The Globe – I mentioned on watching footie in the states will be released May 15th:

http://www.amazon.com/Globe-Chester-Alamo-Costello/dp/0615339417/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1271627068&sr=8-1

If I get an advanced copy, I will bring to the show.

Finally, my 3rd book – Listen – is in process. This artbook will look at the the act of listening to music! It may be of interest also :)

Good luck with your tour. Be safe.
