NME coverstars Klaxons coming back to U.S. - tour dates (CMJ) + Halloween MoFo w/ Morningwood & secret band

NME | OCT 7, 2006
The Klaxons

Klaxons are coming back to the States. On November 1st they're playing one of those super-hard-to-get-into-late-night VICE CMJ-afterparties at Cake Shop in NYC. Then they go to Philly, and on November 4th they come back to play Galapagos in Brooklyn (also during CMJ). Then they go to Cali.

The next NYC Motherf*cker party happens on Halloween at the Roxy (flyer). NYC's own Morningwood (the band everyone loves to hate even more than the Klaxons) are playing. Plus there's a "'laid back' performance by secret band" @ 1:30 am. All I know is the 'secret band' is from the UK, and it's during CMJ, so it could be anyone.

All tour dates below...

UPDATE: This Klaxons tour has been cancelled.

KLAXONS | 2006 TOUR DATES
Nov 01 - New York, NY @ Cake Shop (VICE late-night w/ 120 Days)
Nov 03 - Philadelphia, PA @ Pure Nightclub
Nov 04 - Brooklyn, NY @ Galapagos w/ Shit Disco
Nov 07 - Hollywood, CA @ Cinespace
Nov 09 - San Francisco, CA @ Popscene @ 330 Ritch

MORNINGWOOD | 2006 TOUR DATES

Hot Chip's Tour Dates:

Oct 21 2006 8:00A Leadmill Sheffield
Nov 1 2006 8:00P Sonar Baltimore, MD
Nov 2 2006 8:00P Webster Hall New york, NY

Seems unlikely they would go from NYC to Baltimore to NYC, but it is possible to do.

It's true, Klaxons sadly cancelled this trip.

Wasn't there also a rumor Hot Chip was playing Bowery on 10/31?

Posted by jerry | October 17, 2006 12:32 PM

dude, how are you so certain it's not hot chip? i'm the one who guessed above and i'd still put money on it. totally makes sense.

They're filming a video in DC from October 28 through October 31. My roommate is helping out with the production.

oh, gotcha. though if filming ends on october 31 it's still likely hot chip could be back in NYC for a 1:30am set that night.

I hear it's The Rapture at Bowery on 10/31

according to a call to DFA today, IT IS HOT CHIP, 100%.

i think i remember falling asleep listening to them.

but mofo is awesome. morningwood puts on a fun show. and its halloween. should be dope.

I just talked to DFA and they completely 100% denied that they had talked to anyone about this.

Posted by Anonymous | October 17, 2006 6:47 PM

i will bet my fucking left testicle that it is hotchip. and the dfa is lying becuase they arent allowed to play mofo if they play cmj, and vice versa.

COW Chip is more like it.

Posted by wankers | October 17, 2006 10:59 PM

damnnnn the cancelling KLAXONS!!

when are they coming back?? anyone know??

Posted by Anonymous | October 17, 2006 11:28 PM

Klaxons best come further up the west coast once they reschedule-ie Portland (ideal) or Seattle (worth the trip)

Posted by Nilina | October 18, 2006 1:02 AM

Those guys aren't that interesting. I remember seeing a while ago that White Rose Movement would be playing MoFo. I'll catch that after the Cardigans gig.
