Built to Spill Line Up Tour, Add Pre-ATP Perfect Show
Though they're currently in L.A. jamming out their follow-up to 2006's You in Reverse, Built to Spill have another album on their minds lately: 1997's Perfect From Now On, Pitchfork's 22nd favorite album of the 1990s.
As your next credit card statement will likely remind you, Doug Martsch and company will head to upstate New York way off in September to perform the noodly neo-classic at the inaugural ATP New York event. But never ones to let a Perfect opportunity pass them by, they'll hit the stage at Pappy & Harriet's in Pioneertown, California on September 12 for a warm-up run through Perfect From Now On. What's more, that gig also finds Camper Van Beethoven tackling the entirety of 1989's Key Lime Pie. I thought people didn't care about albums anymore?
Built to Spill have also scheduled a smattering of regular dates through the spring and early summer.
