None of these places are close to me.

Comment by muffinsoup February 26, 2010 @ 3:59 pmYAY! Already got my NYC tickets and am going to work on the Jersey date. Your last show at Mawells was life changing for me.
Comment by Shannon February 26, 2010 @ 4:29 pmSasquatch? Please?
Comment by Jack February 26, 2010 @ 4:46 pmI assume the Princeton show will be open only to students at Princeton University; can anyone confirm this?
Comment by sms February 26, 2010 @ 5:07 pmCan’t wait to see you in TO. Let us know if you need restaurant recommendations….

Comment by marcel February 26, 2010 @ 5:10 pmi’m seriously considering flying up to ny from florida just to see you.
Comment by kathleen February 26, 2010 @ 5:13 pmAbsolutely gutted to not see any TX dates on here.
Comment by Barry February 26, 2010 @ 5:14 pmWhaaaa. You guys have a song named after the “Show Me State,” yet no dates in good ol’ Missouri? What is thissss.
Comment by Ashley February 26, 2010 @ 5:40 pmYou’re in NY the same night as Owen Pallett! I’m torn!!
Comment by HP February 26, 2010 @ 5:40 pmseattle, here i come! see ya there!
Comment by KiaMarie February 26, 2010 @ 5:46 pmI agree with Ashley.
Comment by Jeni February 26, 2010 @ 5:47 pmNo Missouri shows?
I am beyond crushed.
I just went from the happiest moment in my life to one of the worst. My favorite band, at my favorite venue….on my sister’s wedding date. AHHHHHHHHHH
Comment by Drew February 26, 2010 @ 5:52 pmAww man, no Southeast love again? Last time, the closest to Atlanta you got was St. Louis; this time, it’s Kentucky. Bummed out! Maybe I can make the Kentucky trip… maybe all of the Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Louisiana, Texas, et al can make the Kentucky trip.
Comment by Christin February 26, 2010 @ 6:02 pmI second Barry’s notion here. I’m devastated.
Comment by Josh February 26, 2010 @ 6:08 pmI am all for a Caravan Of Love to Kentucky. I’ve been busy working out the mileage and times all morning, right after I picked up my jaw from the floor.
ROAD TRIP YEAH
Comment by Barry February 26, 2010 @ 6:20 pmthanks for maxwell’s! So excited!

Comment by Sarah February 26, 2010 @ 6:59 pmPlease please come to mexicoooo!
Comment by lynn February 26, 2010 @ 7:27 pmamazing… no AUSTIN stop
Comment by Chris February 26, 2010 @ 7:27 pmBut what about Austin?
Comment by Anna February 26, 2010 @ 7:58 pmThanks for playing an early show in Chicago. Based on the timing, your show should be done by 10:30 or so, leaving me time to also hit the Apples in Stereo. I’m really excited for both.
Comment by Seitz February 26, 2010 @ 8:10 pmIt’s sad to have you not come to Vancouver again. We all love you here. Now, how to convince my friends to roadtrip to Seattle.
Comment by aimee February 26, 2010 @ 9:14 pmMajestic Theatre is a hellhole crawling with dickheads, but I’ll take what I can get. Goddamnit am I glad you’re coming back to Madison.
Comment by Kyle S February 26, 2010 @ 9:35 pmITALY EXIST!!
Comment by alice February 26, 2010 @ 9:36 pmThrilled to death that Minneapolis was added
Comment by Tim February 26, 2010 @ 9:40 pmMinneapolis date is 18+. Sad.
Comment by Joel February 26, 2010 @ 9:50 pmYOU WERE AMAZING AT KOKO!
x
Comment by Amy February 27, 2010 @ 12:41 amThank you
Gutted Detroits not there. Maybe next year.
Comment by Colin February 27, 2010 @ 12:48 amI live in San Diego, but I am visiting my parents in Seattle for a couple weeks in May. You’re in Seattle the week before I’m in Seattle and you’re in San Diego two weeks before I’m in San Diego. This happened last year too. It’s like I’m cursed. Cursed never to see you in concert.
(When you’re in San Diego, try to eat at Pokez. It’s about a 30 minute walk from your venue, but if you have an extra day or a few hours to kill you should check it out. It’s a delicious Mexican place that is incredibly vegan-friendly. I recommend Joey’s Special to the non-vegans in the band. With the green sauce)
Comment by Alison February 27, 2010 @ 1:02 amAhhhhh! You’re playing at the EL Rey AND Glass House!
You guys have seriously made my year. I’m so happy. It’ll be my fifth and sixth time seeing you guys! <3
Comment by Victoria February 27, 2010 @ 2:06 amWhat happened to the southeast? Thought Bottletree was one of your favorite venues.
Comment by ronald February 27, 2010 @ 2:24 amSeattle is so close, yet so far. Sucks that you’re not coming to Vancouver again!
Comment by DianaS February 27, 2010 @ 2:25 amwhat’s with skipping philly the last 2 tours!? we’re certainly one of america’s foremost cities! i would go so far as to say the foremost after new york!
Comment by ian February 27, 2010 @ 2:51 amPhiladelphia! Oh well, I guess I could go to New Jersey.
Comment by Chris F February 27, 2010 @ 3:54 amfuk yeh. Lovely tour, good luck lads, hope to see you in South America once again.
Comment by Mark. February 27, 2010 @ 6:23 amNo way “Drew”! Ive got the EXACT same issue…
Comment by Mark February 27, 2010 @ 6:49 amjust bought my tickets for the seattle show. roadtrippin’ it from vancouver island.
Comment by hannah February 27, 2010 @ 7:07 amglad to see sparky making the trip.
hope your guys tour schedule isn’t as insane as the last one; all those back to backs on the west coast. crazy.
Comment by tps February 27, 2010 @ 8:54 amI’ll see you in Burlington.
Comment by Ethan February 27, 2010 @ 9:14 amHoly shit, you’re playing in Laval Quebec (just off the island of Montreal). You just made my day!Thank you. Yeh………………
Comment by Petrellad February 27, 2010 @ 3:55 pmsooo excited for the minneapolis show, i only wish it was all ages so my mom didnt have to bring me but at least you’re coming!!
Comment by Audrey February 27, 2010 @ 4:36 pmLaval??? Whoa, nice! I won’t even have to take the metro to Montreal this time!
Made my day!
Comment by Alexis February 27, 2010 @ 10:24 pmso excited. already grabbed my tix for the glass house and the el rey! 3rd and 4th times seeing you live.
Comment by Charles February 28, 2010 @ 2:19 amYes! Thank you, LC! PORTLAND!
Comment by Wolf Black February 28, 2010 @ 5:52 amSparky should open for these shows
Comment by megan February 28, 2010 @ 9:32 pmI’m so happy that my AP test isn’t May 4th – that would have ruined my entire spring.
Comment by Clair February 28, 2010 @ 10:55 pmI think you played one of the shows of my live on friday, it was so enjoyable. Shame there was no encore though! x
Comment by Jessica February 28, 2010 @ 11:41 pmOh man, I cannot believe you guys are coming in Laval! Is this some kind of big fuck you to Montreal? Haha. So awesome.
Comment by Anthony March 1, 2010 @ 12:12 amOH SHIT COVINGTON I may have to make TWO ROAD TRIPS for these shows. But alas, at least I’m going to Chicago. Have you picked openers yet?
Comment by Jeska March 1, 2010 @ 4:21 amhey guys why dont you stop complaining?
Comment by carly March 1, 2010 @ 7:11 amit sucks if they cant come to your city but its not because they dont want to, its just somewhat impossible to play in EVERY city in the us
KOKO was incredibly fun.
Comment by Claire March 1, 2010 @ 12:08 pmBut I feel terrible. Harriet’s name was not on my bag of vegan cookies for you all. HARRIET: HOW COULD I FORGET? I love your name, and the cookies were absolutely for you too.
Hugs for Harriet. I am terribly sorry.
No excuses.
When are tickets going on sale for the Minneapolis show? Making the 7 hour round trip once to just by the tickets ahead of time is something I’d like to avoid. I just haven’t seen any option to buy a ticket online.
Comment by Shawn March 1, 2010 @ 10:24 pmThis is strange. The gig on April 19 in Laval, Quebec is being advertised as The Lemonheads. Once you click on the name to purchase tickets, then “Los Campesinos” pops up. Are The Lemonheads opening for LC?
Comment by Petrellad March 2, 2010 @ 2:48 amHeh. So I’m not the only one with the “you’re playing in Laval!?” reaction. Also…not sure if it’d be funnier if “The Lemonheads” is someone’s inputting error or if LC! will be sharing a stage with Evan Dando. I checked, they have some dates posted for March, so who knows.
Comment by Julia March 2, 2010 @ 4:41 amYou should SO come to Dallas…I’m just sayin.
Comment by Elizabeth March 2, 2010 @ 5:06 amThe closest show is 14+ hours away! Nooooooo! I swear, Colorado is right in the middle of all the assuredly crazy-awesome places you’re going to! >_<
Comment by Patrick March 2, 2010 @ 1:12 pmYES, I CAN WALK TO YR CONCERT IN SD!
This just made my WEEK.
Comment by Alia March 2, 2010 @ 3:23 pmWhat are you guys doing May 12th? Coming to Las Vegas to play a show? Wonderful.
Comment by Andew T March 2, 2010 @ 6:28 pmGARETH! why no cleveland this time? will you be coming in the future? did something go particularly wrong for you last april? do you not like the grog shop as a venue? please come back dude, i helped you buy a beer during the show and was right next to you in the crowd. it was the most amazing experience of my life. can i PAY you to come?
Comment by John March 2, 2010 @ 6:44 pmI’ve been waiting to see you again but you aren’t hitting anywhere within a state of Kansas. No Sooner State? No Show-Me state? Hoping for fill-in dates to hit the middle states!
Comment by Andy March 3, 2010 @ 2:24 amAnyone know of a good hostel/cheap place to crash in Toronto near either the Phoenix or the Greyhound station?
Comment by Matt Scott March 3, 2010 @ 4:34 amAnyone want to roadtrip from Minneapolis to Madison?
Comment by Drew March 3, 2010 @ 8:58 amChicago and San Francisco tickets are purchased! So excited!
Comment by vanessa March 3, 2010 @ 9:15 pmWithout trying to sound like a 16yo groupie and I’m sure they’ve heard this before…
I find it really sad/depressing that LC hasn’t toured Australia. I mean, 3 studio albums and no mention of one, ever.
And when they do eventually make it down to Australia, they will be promoting RiB, meaning less songs from Hold On Now and We Are Beautiful – records which made me fall in love with LC.
ps. Yes I am aware that LC doesn’t owe us fans anything, I just find it sad that after 3 albums they haven’t been here. And compare that to really shitty bands who have been here after one. Where’s the justice?
Comment by Charlotte March 4, 2010 @ 12:07 amMatt Scott: there are a lot of dingy hostels in Toronto. I usually stay at the Hostelling International on Church near Front. It’s about a 15-20 min. walk from the Phoenix and the bus terminal. Last time I stayed there was after the LC! show last year, actually, and they gave me the “midnight special” so a private room with a bunk was only $30 or something. As long as there’s nothing major going on, I’d say you’d have to problem walking in for a room on a weekday in April.
Comment by Julia March 4, 2010 @ 2:52 pmthat’s “no problem”, of course…
Comment by Julia March 4, 2010 @ 2:53 pmalright, three posts in a row – I don’t think I made it clear that the HI hostel was nice. yup.
Comment by Julia March 4, 2010 @ 8:04 pmNo Vancouver + no valid passport to get to Seattle = very disappointed LC! fan.
I was too young to see you last time you were here, and now you won’t come visit.
Comment by annie March 4, 2010 @ 11:50 pmI’m just disappointed that you chose New Jersey over Texas. NEW JERSEY.
Comment by Josh March 5, 2010 @ 6:03 pmAny Chance you all will make it to Dallas again It was a blast last time.
Comment by Bren Pike March 5, 2010 @ 6:21 pmmaxwells in nj and the princeton place in nj are both 18+
Comment by Rita March 5, 2010 @ 8:53 pmTo say im disappointed about that, especially after i bought the tickets is a gross understatement
Comment by Rita March 5, 2010 @ 9:01 pmGainesville, Florida is holding out hope.
Comment by stationagent March 5, 2010 @ 9:11 pmJust got my ticket for the Laval gig (I still can’t believe LC is playing in Laval instead of Montreal). The strange thing about the venue is that there will be seats. What’s with the seats? Are we suppose to sit while LC is playing? This should be interesting. Can’t wait!!!!!!!!!!!!
Comment by petrellad March 5, 2010 @ 9:43 pmPlease, Please, Please come to St. Louis!
Comment by Ken March 6, 2010 @ 7:51 pmno texas dates?
Comment by chris March 6, 2010 @ 11:13 pmFirst Ave in minneapolis has a picture of some people who are for sure not Los Campesinos! in their calendar as LC! also, its listed as 18+ so either you guys forgot to make note of that above or first ave is wrong…
Comment by Audrey March 7, 2010 @ 4:46 amjust thought i would let you know!
please come to Mexico city!!
Comment by Kiv March 7, 2010 @ 6:21 amLess love for south texas.. I’ll make it to one of your shows one day!
Comment by Karen March 8, 2010 @ 5:47 amYea screw Texas, go Jersey, but why no Philly
Comment by Siebel March 8, 2010 @ 7:43 pmpeople in new jersey hate new jersey
Comment by chris March 8, 2010 @ 7:47 pmMissing a date around NYC on the 16th of April there :3
Comment by Peter March 10, 2010 @ 4:20 amWOHOOOOO!! is it real??26th may is BARCELONA!it is confirmed in PRIMAVERA SOUND’s site
http://www.primaverasound.com/ps.php?seccion=cartel&idioma=en

Comment by Pablo March 10, 2010 @ 11:44 pmI just called the Phoenix a few minutes ago, for the Toronto show, and they said it’s definitely 19+. So confusedddd.
Comment by Sam March 11, 2010 @ 8:59 pmJust got my ticket for DC!!! See you there!!!!!!
Comment by Madeline March 12, 2010 @ 4:25 amJust got my Toronto tickets, it better be all ages like you say.
Comment by Brent March 12, 2010 @ 9:47 pmYou really need to come to texas again!!
Comment by Nick March 13, 2010 @ 4:11 amst. louis misses you LC!
Comment by BL March 14, 2010 @ 5:52 pmCan we get a check on the whether the Toronto show is 19+ or All Ages? Everyone says something different
Comment by Zack March 14, 2010 @ 7:52 pmConsider Dallas again, third time is a charm!
Comment by Bren Pike March 15, 2010 @ 6:06 pmDamn Florida and all it’s inconviniance!!!
Comment by Dakots March 17, 2010 @ 4:09 amYou don’t want to go to TEXAS! The place is full of simpleton hillbillies that look, smell, and talk funny.
Comment by Yee Haw March 30, 2010 @ 1:22 amY’all should come to Texas!
Comment by Fucking Handsome Texan! April 3, 2010 @ 7:31 amLooking forward to the show in Chicago at the Metro. A note for Gareth: We met last year at Lollapalooza. I am the LFC supporter (Chester) whose married to the MU supporter (Sandy). Anyway, the book – The Globe – I mentioned on watching footie in the states will be released May 15th:
http://www.amazon.com/Globe-Chester-Alamo-Costello/dp/0615339417/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1271627068&sr=8-1
If I get an advanced copy, I will bring to the show.
Finally, my 3rd book – Listen – is in process. This artbook will look at the the act of listening to music! It may be of interest also
Good luck with your tour. Be safe.
