Patrick Wolf Announces North American Tour
Glitter and face paint and Photoshopped swaths of ethereal pastel haze, oh my! Patrick Wolf is fixing to unleash his inner diva on North America this fall, and you'd do well to make the young man's acquaintance.
Wolf's latest reconnaissance mission onto North American shores commences September 30 in Philadelphia and wraps up a few weeks later in Los Angeles. And in keeping with his recent rant against age-restricted shows, Wolf and his handlers have taken special care to keep as many of these upcoming gigs all ages as possible. Indeed, only the San Francisco one is 21+. Sheesh, way to ruin it for everyone, San Fran.
Wolf also alludes, via his MySpace, to forthcoming dates in Japan, Australia, and the UK, so don't be surprised to find another Patrick Wolf tour story in these action-packed pages soon.
And after that? Wolf writes of starting "a self imposed non public phase of my next year when I will dissapear [sic] into the studio to make my fourth [album]" in the same recent MySpace post. Then again, Wolf writes a lot of things, but we're fairly confident he's being straight with us this time.
