Jimmy Kimmel tonight, KROQ Weenie Roast, KJEE Summer Round-Up, New Sheffield date..
Good morning,
It’s so nice to be back in our homes in L.A., after these weeks of bouncing around Europe. We’d like to thank everyone who came out to our shows in Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne, Hasselt, Paris, Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Coventry, Dublin, London, and Manchester. You made us feel at home thousands of miles from it…
We also want to thank those of you who arrived at our show in Sheffield only to find the forces of electricity conspiring against us. It’s taken a little while to get the details sorted for a makeup date, but we finally have one ( though not June as we originally intended):
July 14, 2009 – The Leadmill – Sheffield, UK
(All tickets for the May 6th show will be honored)
Stateside, we’re excited to announce that we’ll be playing Jimmy Kimmel Live! tonight on ABC The show starts at 12:05 a.m., and we’ll be taking the stage sometime after that. We really hope you can check it out.
Also, this Saturday, May 16th, we’ll be playing the KROQ Weenie Roast y Fiesta at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater in Irvine with great bands like Silversun Pickups and Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
And on Sunday, May 17th, we’ll be heading up to Santa Barbara to play KJEE’s Summer Round-Up with Kings of Leon at the Santa Barbara Bowl.
If you’re in the neighborhood, we hope you can come join us.
Next week, we’ll be playing two shows with our good friends the Henry Clay People in Arizona:
5/19/09 – Martini Ranch – Scottsdale, AZ
5/20/09 – The Rock – Tucson, AZ
Shows with these gentlemen tend to be especially raucous affairs..

5/24/09 – Sasquatch! Music Festival – The Gorge – Quincy, WA

i had my ticket for montreal,now all i’m left with is waiting!!please come back soon!!:)
you and the silversun pickups, going to be a hell of a show
The performance on the tube was FANTASTIC!! It was a different take on the song but I LOVED every second of it. Recorded it on the ol’ VHS….had to rewind and re-watch the Jay Leno performance as well thats on the same tape. That song just makes me fall in love with you guys all over again…its never the same song each and everytime I hear it I hear something new. If your music could be pumped directly into my bloodstream I would be shooting up hardcore each day! I LOVE your music. Thanks for the inspiration to get out and LIVE my life.
Love the Pulp reference! Is it even POSSIBLE to love this band more than we do already??! Looking forward to 14th July – thanks guys.
Love, Gill
