Beastie Boys – Lock Down Short U.S. Tour
Billboard.com reports: As expected, the BEASTIE BOYS will play a handful of live dates this summer, alternating between more traditional hip-hop shows and an instrumental set along the lines of the trio’s new Capitol album, “The Mix-Up.”
The hip-hop shows will begin Aug. 1 in Philadelphia and run through Aug. 25 in Berkeley, Calif. Pre-sale tickets will be available Thursday (Aug. 14). Dates for the instrumental performances have yet to be announced.
“We’ve got plenty more work ahead of us,” Mike D recently told Billboard. “We kind of have a pretty broad list [of songs] to pick and choose from.”
The BEASTIES will be touring internationally through late July. Another run of shows in Ireland and the United Kingdom is on tap for early September.
Here are the BEASTIE BOYS‘ U.S. tour dates:
August 1 – Philadelphia, PA @ Festival Pier
August 4 – Baltimore, MD @ Virgin Festival
August 6 – Boston, MA @ Bank of America Pavilion
August 8 – New York, NY @ Central Park SummerStage
August 9 – Brooklyn, NY @ McCarren Park Pool
August 16 – Morrison, CO @ Red Rocks
August 23 – Santa Barbara, CA @ County Bowl
August 25 – Berkeley, CA @ Greek Theatre
August 9 – Brooklyn, NY @ McCarren Park Pool
I probably wont think much about going to this since they most likely won’t break out their instruments at all[No rock songs]
Anyway, WTF is this pool place? i looked it up and found their web-site, the photos make it look like the floor is a massive drained out pool, but I’m not sure.
