Pitchfork

Their tour technically began Sunday (March 30), but with apologies to the cities of Boston and Montreal, let's just say Dirty Projectors start their spring jaunt tonight in Toronto. So what are you waiting for? Hop a plane to Ontario already! Alternately, you could just wait for the punk-loving proggers to make their way to your home city, which they almost undoubtedly will, no matter where you live.

After touring North America with No Kids in April, the Projectors will head to Europe for a round of recently announced dates, including their stop at ATP vs. Pitchfork. They'll follow that set later this summer with an appearance at the sequel, aka the 2008 Pitchfork Music Festival.
