Big Dipper reuniting, releasing anthology, playing 3 shows
DOWNLOAD: Big Dipper - Shes Fetching (MP3)
Supercluster: The Big Dipper Anthology is a 3 CD set. 48 tracks re-mastered from the original tapes, plus a video, all for an incredibly low price. Extensive liner notes are included, with background and history provided by the band themselves, as well as exclusive liner notes from Tom Scharpling, who famously set out on a crusade to get the band back together for his “Best Show on WFMU” in 2004. [Merge]I previously mentioned this release (out March 18, 2008), but that was before they announced tour dates....
Big Dipper - 2008 Tour Dates
04.24 - Hoboken NJ @ Maxwell's
04.25 - Brooklyn NY @ Southpaw
04.26 - Cambridge MA @ Middle East Downstairs
Tickets are on sale for all three shows.

Big Dipper was one of the first CDs I ever bought (not first records - one of the first Compact Discs). Homestead put an EP and their debut LP on a single CD so it was kind of a deal.
