Now that you've had a little time to digest Worried Noodles-- the star-studded musical extrapolation of the words of artist David Shrigley which finally made its way to disc late last month from Tomlab-- you may be wondering where the unique project could be heading next. One hopes you've saved a little room for another course or two, as a pair of live Worried Noodles performances will be taking place over the next few weeks.

On December 5, Islands ("special pared down line-up"), YACHT, Phil Elverum of the Microphones/Mt. Eerie and Nick Krgovich (P:ano, No Kids), Tussle, R. Stevie Moore and Roger Ferguson, Christopher Francis, Tomlab DJs, and some super-secret special guests will take the stage of New York City's Knitting Factory. They'll perform strands from Noodles and regular sets as well. Shrigley himself will be in attendance at the gig, and proceeds from the show will go to Amnesty International.

It's going down this Saturday in Berlin, too, with Dirty Projectors, YACHT, Scarlet's Well, and a DJ set from Psapp celebrating Worried Noodles at Festsaal Kreuzberg. The event also benefits Amnesty International.

All of this follows on the heels of an October 14 show in London that featured Hot Chip, Max Tundra, and more.
