Arcade Fire Launch Most Anticipated Tour of All Time
Arcade Fire fans, your prayers have been answered. Win, Regine, Richard and their cohorts are gearing up to take their still-unopened Neon Bible on the road.
The band will kick off their bi-continental teaser trek this evening with the first of five shows in London, followed by five-night runs in Montreal and New York City in February. All of those shows are hella sold out, of course.
In March, they return overseas to tour the UK and Europe.
They're also slated to appear at Coachella on April 28, and, according to NME.com, are rumored to be playing England's mammoth Glastonbury festival in June.
As previously reported, the Arcade Fire will release Neon Bible on March 6 (March 5 in Europe) via Merge Records.
