Sure, when they dole out scholarships, we give it a mention. When they cover a civil rights anthem, we try to help get the word out. And when they're making plans for the biggest date night of the year, we want you to know. But unless you're a college-bound Roots completist with a penchant for Italian food, you may have wondered just when TV on the Radio were gonna get around to you.

Well, here goes: for the first time in far too long, TV on the Radio have gathered together just enough live engagements to call a tour. The Brooklyn rockers will take to the road in North America come September for just about two weeks' worth of shows, kicking things off at Portland's MusicFest NW and ultimately landing at Treasure Island in San Francisco. Sure, if you don't dwell in Canada or the Western portion of the U.S., you're basically S.O.L. for now. But if TV on the Radio have taught us anything, it's that you'll get yours eventually.
