Oh Boy, The Slits reunite and are touring America.
Hot Damn punk rock friends, one half of The Slits, Ari Up and Tessa Pollitt, have reunited and are coming to our shores. Not sure why Viv Albertine is not around, but Palmolive is living in MA, and is a born again Christian. I am a huge fan of The Slits and of Ari Up's solo output. NYC folks get your tickets now, as the date falls during CMJ Music Marathon.I can't wait. I can't wait. Did I say, I can't wait? Tour dates are below.
