It's nice to see hardworking, talented bands hit it big, to see a band like Modest Mouse match their record geek/fanperson credibility with the commercial success of a #1 debut. And Modest Mouse keep adding chapters to the indie rock success story with the tourmates on their previously reported tour in support of We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank.

Those tourmates? Man Man!

Yep, the Philly boys will join Isaac Brock, Johnny Marr, and co. on the road this spring. How sweet. Those audiences won't know what hit 'em.

But first, Man Man have to finish their own previously reported dates. Godspeed, U.S.S. Man Man!
