The White Stripes Announce Summer Tour
More dates will be announced as they are confirmed. Before the tour begins, however, the White Stripes will go on a brief tour of Eastern Europe, with stops in Latvia and Slovenia.
The album will be released in the U.S. on June 7. The single, "Blue Orchid", has already been released. We here at Pitchfork HQ have been (un)fortunate enough to hear one of the B-sides, "Who's a Big Baby?" Let's just say that you'd do very well to stick to the A-side, and that there's a reason B-sides are left off of albums.
