The National announce tour; Variety Playhouse on May 27
The National have announced a small selection of tour dates for late May. Luckily, one of those is a show at Atlanta's Variety Playhouse. Yes, I applauded in my kitchen when I read that on The Music Slut. It's been far too long since I've seen these lads live.
The National - Fake Empire
The tour:
5/21 Kool Haus, Toronto
5/22 Metropolis, Montreal,
5/23 House Of Blues, Boston, MA
5/24 9:30 Club, Washington, DC
5/25 9:30 Club, Washington, DC
5/27 Variety Playhouse, Atlanta, GA
5/28 Lincoln Theater, Raleigh, NC
5/29 Electric Factory, Philadelphia, PA
I can't help but feel like I've missed an announcement or something about these guys. Are they still promoting Boxer, or is there a new record coming? Please chime in if you can drop some knowledge.

Bryce was behind a new compilation album "Dark was the Night" that comes out in February and has a new track by them on it. Perhaps there's a new EP/album coming in addition to that, but their Myspace page just says they'll be "trying out some new songs."

Thanks, Brandon. I'm aware of the comp, and glad to hear we'll get new material. Appreciate it!

I read somewhere that they won't be releasing anything til next year, although I think it was just a fellow blogger telling me, nothing official. Shame though, it's definitely time for some new National stuff!
