Gang Gang Dance, still riding high off their well-received 2008 album Saint Dymphna (TMT Review), have announced a series of summer tourdates. The shows will Kris Kross the nation, including sets at both Lollapalooza and Bumbershoot, as well as scattered dates in other countries. Knowing how adjectives can easily lure fans to their shows, GGD are going out of their way to let you know about their apparently visceral, intense, communal, and downright joyous shows.
And FYI: Gang Gang Dance have promised a newly repressed version of their 2005 album, God’s Money (after being out-of-print for “sometime”), which will be made available for purchase at the shows. Yet another way to rope you in.
