Pitchfork: The Strokes Add Canadian, European Dates

The Strokes Add Canadian, European Dates

O Canada, the Strokes haven't forgotten about you. You either, Europe. The boys recently announced a string of dates in the Great White North in May, following their current U.S. trek. In June, they'll hop 'cross the pond for a series of festival appearances punctuated by a few headlining shows.

Expect much standing still and staring off into the distance.
