Damn, Sam (I Love a Ryan Adams Tour)

It’s a hard way to fall, but it’s certainly getting easier with a slew of new tour dates from Ryan Adams and the Cardinals. Chugging like Hüsker Dü on a country binge, Reckoning like a 1981 Grateful Dead, RA and Co. will blaze through like an expressway to your skull this fall and winter with an extensive run with dates in Australia, the US, Canada, and the UK.

Tomorrow’s on its way and there’s always new songs to sing. So all you halloweenheads and sad draculas put down your suicide handbooks, come out of your exile on Franklin Street and catch The Cardinals on tour. It’ll be better than a pack of American Spirits and a Diet Sprite.*

*This is serious. This is about eggs.

(If all of this is reading a little Greek to you, hit up Google, listen to more Ryan Adams and look forward to a certain November cover story of a certain music, film and culture magazine.)
