The Mr P-sanctioned and approved Kurt Vile and his Violators seem to be digging this touring thang and have yet again extended their touring into December, tearing into the far-off lands of Europe and um, Brooklyn. Holy shit. I just realized that they're the opening act for Big Star at the Brooklyn Masonic Temple! Guess who has tickets to that?! This news story went from exciting to eXcITinG! And... the gloating has passed. Anyway, Vile's (outstanding) Matador debut Childish Prodigy (TMT Review) has won the hearts of grumpy ol' record collectors and snotty blogs alike, so the momentum could push this tour even further, don'tcha think? I will now begin my campaign for a Kurt Vile/Pavement show in a certain borough of New York City. Nothing ever happens here, anyway.
