TVK (formerly Tyvek) - 2008 Tour Dates, MP3
by Nick Masi
DOWNLOAD: TVK - Give It Up (MP3)

Tyvek are gearing up for another tour, but things are different this time around. It's possible the popular brand of synthetic materials owned by Dupont had enough of punk rockers from Michigan smearing their name. The Detroit lo-fi group is now known as TVK. Whether that is still pronounced "Tyvek" is currently unknown. Regardless, the sound (of the music) remains the same. TVK play Cake Shop in NYC on October 3rd with Blues Control and Death By Audio in Brooklyn the following day with Cause Co-Motion!. Vivian Girls join them for a few dates on the tour, but not in NYC where VG have plenty of their own shows to play with just about everyone else but Tyvek, I mean TVK.
"Give It Up" can be found on Tyvek's ?0107/?0207 Tyvek "Summer Burns" 2X7" It was released by What's Your Rupture in 7/07. All TVK tour dates below...
