On a night like tonight (and quite a few more in the not-too-distant future), if you know just where to look, you can see Stars. The Canadian crew, currently doing the festival thing in Europe, have just announced a North American tour in the late summer and early fall. The trek stops at the Outside Lands Festival in San Francisco in late August and Austin City Limits in Texas in late September.

Stars also have a new video for their latest single from last year's stellar In Our Bedroom After the War. The "Bitches in Tokyo" clip was directed by Experimental Parachute Movement, aka Broken Social Scene's Kevin Drew and filmmaker George Vale.
