Tokyo Police Club A Lesson In Crime

Tokyo Police Club doing A Lesson In Crime 10-year tour, reissuing it with Smith EP

Tokyo Police Club recently released the second part of their two-part Melon Collie and the Infinite Radness EPs, and both will be packaged together for a vinyl release in January. Meanwhile, TPC will be revisiting the release they won us all over with, their 2006 debut EP A Lesson In Crime, for a 10th anniversary tour in 2017.

The tour includes NYC shows on January 20 at Bowery Ballroom and January 21 at Music Hall of Williamsburg. Both have local support from Charly Bliss (who also opened for TPC earlier this year). Tickets for Bowery go on AmEx presale today (11/2) at noon and tickets for MHOW go on fan club presale today at 10 AM (password = MYHOUSE). Both go on sale to the general public on Friday (11/4) at noon. All dates are listed below.

Tokyo Police Club are also packing A Lesson In Crime with 2007’s Smith EP for a joint vinyl release that’s coming out on Record Store Day Black Friday (11/25). It’ll be the first time the Smith EP has ever been pressed on vinyl, and the first time these two EPs have been packaged together (not counting that CD-R you burned for your friend in ’07).
