Yeah Yeah Yeahs Announce August Dates



With their Is Is EP available everywhere July 24 via Dress Up/Fiction (not just in the UK on July 23, as previously reported), Yeah Yeah Yeahs have announced another addition to their 2007 schedule: a few North American tour dates!

Instead of the mere pair of festival dates we previously reported, Karen O and co. now have, like, two weeks full of shows.

The tour begins August 1 in Lawrence, Kansas and ends August 18 at the Download Festival near Boston. Thanks to reader Sarah Powers for the tip.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Karen O and Nick Zinner, as you may have read, also lend their talents to Squeak E. Clean's forthcoming NASA LP.
Date date dates:

08-01 Lawrence, KS - Granada Theatre
08-02 Columbia, MO - The Blue Note
08-04 Chicago, IL - Grant Park (Lollapalooza)
08-05 Baltimore, MD - Pimlico Race Track (Virgin Festival)
08-07 New York, NY - Webster Hall
08-15 Philadelphia, PA - Electric Factory
08-18 Mansfield, MA - Tweeter Center (Download Festival)
