Spoon Prepares for U.S. Tour, European Release

Spork prepares for shrinkwrapping at KFC factory
Britt Daniel, Jim Eno, and Josh Zarbo-- the Austin, Texas-based trio more affectionately known as Spoon-- will kick off two weeks' worth of touring on November 9th in Toronto. The band is playing out in support of Girls Can Tell, which was released earlier this year on Merge.

In other feel-good, Spoon-related news, 12XU is planning to release Spoon's 1998 album A Series of Sneaks for the first time in the UK and Europe. Hitting the shelves November 12th, this version of Sneaks will feature three songs not included on the U.S. version: "Revenge," "Shake It Off," and "I Could Be Underground." A double a-sided CD single of "Car Radio" and "Advance Cassette" will be released in the UK on November 26th. Those lucky limeys get everything.
