The Afghan Whigs playing Fallon & Bowery Ballroom! (soon!)

Afghan Whigs

After the reunited Afghan Whigs announced they were coming back for ATP, followed by the news that they’d be playing Lollpalooza this year after a string of European dates, the band announced a big October 5th NYC show at Terminal 5 to which tickets are still available.

But the band just announced that their first show in 13 years will happen at Bowery Ballroom on Wednesday, May 23, one night after they appear on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. Tickets go on sale Friday, May 11 at noon though a “Fanclub presale” starts Wednesday at 10am (password: whigsnyc). Joseph Arthur opens.
