Fountains of Wayne touring this fall with Soul Asylum and Evan Dando (dates)
by Bill Pearis
Fountains of Wayne are the kind of tuneful ironists who you could imagine writing a song about a nostalgia tour (or about going to one). That was a thought that went through my head, at least, when I heard about this fall tour they’re doing with fellow ’90s alt-rock guitar slingers Soul Asylum and Lemonheads’ Evan Dando. (All three of whom I own multiple records by, I should say.) The NYC area gets three dates: New Brunswick, NJ’s State Theatre on October 1, then Port Chester’s Capitol Theater on October 2, and Webster Hall on October 5.
Tickets to all three shows go on sale Friday (8/9) at noon, with Webster Hall getting an AmEx presale starting Wednesday (8/7) at noon; and The State Theatre getting a Ticketmaster presale on Thursday (8/8) at noon. No presales for the Capitol Theatre tickets.
Fountains of Wayne’s most recent album is 2011’s Sky Full of Holes, which I thought was a pretty good record. Soul Asylum, meanwhile, released Delayed Reaction last summer, their first in six years. All FoW/Soul Asylum/Evan Dando tour dates are listed below.
