Sonic Youth announce tour, play ATL on July 13

Word in from Brooklyn Vegan today that Sonic Youth have announced tour dates for the summer. Among them is a July 13 show at the Variety Playhouse in Atlanta, which seems like a much smaller venue than they could play. I'd get tix early for this one.

Pre-sale tix will be available on May 1, and they'll be available to the general public on May 2. Sonic Youth will release their forthcoming album, The Eternal, on June 9.
