Top Ranking party magnate Diplo and tropical punk Skeleton kings Abe Vigoda will join forces for a North American tour this fall. The outing is billed as a Mad Decent tour, though Abe Vigoda and fellow tourmates Telepathe have no prior association with the label other than, we assume, mutual respect and admiration.

In addition to Diplo, Boy 8-Bit and-- on some dates yet to be determined-- Blaqstarr will represent Mad Decent on the excursion. We're not entirely sure what Count Dracula and pizza dude up there have to do with all this, but hey, there they are in Jacob Chabot's tour illustration.

Diplo and Abe Vigoda have plenty of summer shows to keep them busy before their joint adventure.
