And the Bloc Party Don't Stop
Soon enough, Bloc Party are going to start running out of places they haven't already played. And when that day comes, they might just show up at your house unannounced to ask your mom if they can use your garage.
Their ginormous tour just got a touch more bloated, and with all the weekends they're spending in various cities over the rest of 2007, they've gotta get sick of the same old spots eventually. Park the car on the street and break out the extension cords-- soon enough, Bloc Party may be coming directly at you. For now, though, there's a large probability they're coming awfully close, as they've just added a number of dates to their globe-spanning trek.
In other Bloc Party news, they've got a single for "Hunting for Witches" due July 9 in the UK from Wichita. Yes, yes, witches, Wichita, we already made that joke.
