Dan Deacon Graces Boston!

Our favorite Wham City, avant-garde, electronica wizard is going on tour: The Baltimore Round Robin Tour 2008!

For those who are not completely familiar with the Baltimore music scene, it is built upon the minds of geniuses and encompasses all that is good in the world. On The Baltimore Round Robin Tour, the 29 featured bands are divided into three catagories.

First, "Eyes Night," includes Beach House and Nautical Almanac, "a mixture of folk, noise, theatrics, improvisation-- music that is spiritual, dreamy etc." Second, there's "Feet Night," music that gets you moving and dancing. This catagory includes the god-graced amazingness of The Death Set and Dan Deacon himself. Finally, we have "Weird Round," which will apparently be sporadically inserted in and around the previous two.

Best part of the tour: IT KICKS OFF IN BOSTON! Can you believe it? Some one still cares enough about our sad city to play two nights!

This 14 date, seven-city extravaganza begins on October 2nd at our very own Mass Art. Check out the details below!
