It's only a 3,000 mile trek (give or take) between Glen Rock, New Jersey and San Francisco, California; you know, no big thing. Glen Rock's favorite sons, the fellas of Titus Andronicus, must not mind the trip, seeing as they'll make it twice over the next six weeks.

That's all thanks to a fittingly epic U.S. tour that will bring the Titus gang from sea to shining sea and back two times between tomorrow night's (October 18) kickoff in Brooklyn and their eventual California touchdown in early December. On their way, they'll run into a fellow Jersey boy-- Ted Leo, as we've mentioned before-- and those Cali punks in No Age.

What's with the wanderlust? Might have something to do with The Airing of Grievances, the band's Best New Music-garnering monster from this spring.
