The Posies are gearing up for this year's 30th anniversary celebration which includes reissuing their three Geffen albums -- 1990’s Dear 23, 1993’s Frosting on the Beater, and 1996’s Amazing Disgrace -- on vinyl and CD. Having gone on an acoustic tour earlier this year, The Posies have just announced an extensive full-electric tour that will feature the 1992-1994 lineup that made Frosting on the Beater: main Posies Ken Stringfellow and Jon Auer, plus drummer Mike Musburger and bassist Dave Fox.
