When I heard Sunset Rubdown was going on tour to support its latest album, Random Spirit Lover, it reminded me of my last encounter with that Filipino masseuse in San Francisco, who turned out to be a ghost.
Ahh, college.
ANYWAY, the album (not my ethereal friend) is hitting shelves on October 6 for all those who can't get enough of Spencer Krug's vocalistic stylings. And really, who can't?
Below are some tour dates. If you've got money, you can buy a ticket. If you're like me and don't have money, you can watch this YouTube video and pretend you're there.
