After being delayed once, Dan Boeckner and Alexei Perry (aka Handsome Furs) are extra-ready to take Plague Park to the U.S. Their previously reported North American tour (they also have quite a few dates elsewhere) kicks off tomorrow night (July 21) in Ottawa. The Montreal-residing duo has even added some more U.S. dates in September.

In related news, Boeckner's other band Wolf Parade, will hit the road on their previously reported tour starting August 11 in Kingston, Ontario... at the Wolf Island Festival! Here a wolf, there a wolf, everywhere a wolf wolf.
