Idle editorial policy perhaps, but we tend not to list US dates. Perhaps just suckered in by the idea of The Animated Adventures of Abe Vigoda after seeing the the poster for Diplo's upcoming Mad Decent (MORE) tour, seems like fair game to break from tradition for this one awesome stateside jaunt.

So, who's that up there in animated form joining the Philly baile funk darling and LA's finest tropical punks (with their recent Skeletons (review) as ammunition)? Former drone-pop DiScoverites Telepathe and humble London glitch-merchant Boy 8-Bit.

I clicked on this hoping Ave Vigoda would be playing in England. You've ruined my day.
I saw...
Cambridge on the tour dates, and got very excited.
Then I remembered it was US tour dates, so it's Cambridge MA, rather than Cambridge UK. Bah.
Let me third the motion
That this was an entierly annoying news item as we all get jolly excited and then get rather deflated - why not using your clout to extend this tour to the uk for a week.
Imagining all these peoples faces
going from
:D
to
:(
In the space of a few sentences has made my day.

DiS, you cock-tease.
Telepathe were a discoverite
Surely you can lay claim to foster any success they ever gain in the UK - due to your position as chief opinion maker within the UK music scene - - I'm gonna guess by your reply that your in just as enthusiastic mood as when I saw you at Subtle

I read it, I knew it was in the US but when I saw Cambridge my little heart leapt, how foolish I was.
