Pitchfork: Hold Steady Tour Even More

The Hold Steady talk the talk (very, very well, in fact), but can they walk the walk? Oh you bet your mama's life they can. Craig Finn and crew have just announced that they will soon take Boys and Girls in America (due October 3 via Vagrant) to even more boys and girls in America than originally anticipated.

The band has filled out its upcoming North American excursion, and honestly, we couldn't be more pleased. The Hold Steady will make the entire trek alongside Sean Na Na because really, is there anything more appropriate than boys and girls paired with that infamous "na na na na na na" playground chant?
