The Black Angels Hit the Road, Back Roky Erickson
Less than a week ago, the Black Angels supported legendary psych rocker and fellow Austin, Texas resident Roky Erickson at a show in Dallas. It seems the two acts get along, because they've also got a little West Coast tour together starting at the end of the month.
On the tour, the Black Angels will open for Erickson and then return later each evening as his rhythm section. And that's not the only special part of Erickson's sets, since they will include songs from the 13th Floor Elevators catalog that haven't been performed live in years.
In addition to their dates with Erickson, the Black Angels have quite a few shows, both in the U.S. and Europe. Their next date is tomorrow (October 11) in Pioneertown, California.
