« Krallice touring w/ Withered + Obits added to Brendan tribute | LCD Soundsystem releasing 1500 tickets to MSG NOW »
Posted in music | tour dates on March 28, 2011
Legendary songwriter Paul Simon has added club dates in select cities to his recently announced, sold-out spring theater tour. The added shows offer fans a chance to see the iconic artist and his stellar band in an especially intimate, personal setting...The new dates include 9:30 Club in DC, Music Box in LA, The Vic in Chicago, House of Blues in Boston, etc... but no NYC where he's playing two sold out nights at The Beacon Theatre in May. All dates below......"I'm going to play 3,000 seat theaters and also clubs," he tells Rolling Stone. "I want to play several songs from the new album and music from my repertoire that I either haven't played in concert or have played very seldom. I want to let the band be freer. I'm actually really looking forward to this tour. I'll play a few songs by other people, maybe a couple of Simon and Garfunkel songs. And then late in the evening, who knows, I might pick up my acoustic guitar and sing whatever comes into my mind. That's the fun of clubs, it's looser. I can come at it all from a place that's fresh."
