Pavement announces North American reunion tour dates
You can try your luck at seeing Pavement play a big city near you next year
Back in September, Pavement announced it is reuniting for an European and U.K. tour, scheduled for 2022. The band teased that there would be “more live dates and announcements to follow.” Thankfully, the members stood by their word.
Pavement have now announced a North American reunion tour, kicking off in fall 2022. The tour includes stops in Chicago, Brooklyn, Los Angeles, Boston, Atlanta, San Francisco, and other major cities. This marks their second reunion tour; their first was in 2010.
Many of these cities have multiple dates, but the demand to see Pavement is high, so this is likely going to be an LCD Soundsystem situation. Prepare yourself, set alarms, and have a buddy try to secure tickets in case you’re out of luck. Tickets go on sale Friday, November 5.
The band promised an “announcement” (besides more live dates) last time, so is this North American tour the big announcement they were teasing… or will we eventually get new Pavement music?
The latter seems unlikely, since Stephen Malkmus told NME the band is just “doing the live shows” and trying to “tap into the vibe of what the band was” in the 1990s. Either way, hearing the band play their classics and beloved deep cuts again is more than enough for now.
