Reunited GANG OF FOUR, plans US Tour.
There is a god: The Gang of Four, reunited as the original four piece from "Entertainment", "Solid Gold" era, will be commense a tour of the United States in early May at The Coachella Festival. I was worried that this reunion would only be on the shores of the UK, but after reading the interview in this month's issue of Filter Magazine, I knew that we would get some Gang soon.
New York City dates have not been posted yet, but the venue is believed to be Irving Plaza, sometime in late May. With any luck, we may have a double bill with Mission of Burma, replicating what I can only dream was a fucking amazing bill. Keep your eyes tuned to this space, for all US tour dates, which should be hitting the streets this week. Willamette Week, a weekly rag from Portland, OR, has a current tour diary by Dave Allen, Gang of Four's bassist. Click here to read the bliss.
