Listening to your local college radio station in the past couple of days, you noticed the DJ's voice radiating an all-consuming sense of well being. Awkward pauses and inarticulate uhhh's turned into bubbly chatter and manic ramblings. And you swear your car stereo had, like, this golden aura.
If you were utterly flummoxed, you must have missed the news that Arcade Fire is touring with LCD Soundystem, which is enough to make every other university hipster high on life. The pre-sale ends tomorrow, June 22, and a full-on sale for their show at Red Rocks in Denver (Sept. 17) is Saturday. The tour will run through early October, but only one other date at the Hollywood Bowl on is nailed down. This is sure to be the kind of concert your friends won't shut up about for months afterward, so show up, enjoy it, and consider some talking points.
A review of the dates so far:
September:
17 - Denver, Col. @ Red Rocks (on sale June 23)
20 - Hollywood, Calif. @ Hollywood Bowl (on sale June 30)
