If you feel your life’s been a little short of spaced-out psychedelic rock’n'roll weirdness, you’ll probably be overjoyed to hear that Anton Newcombe and The Brian Jonestown Massacre have announced dates for a crawl around Europe this summer. Either that, or you’ll be unconscious on a stranger’s sofa.
Better still, some of the dates are here in the UK – so if you’re a Brit with a serious hankering for a slice of The Brian Jonestown Massacre’s effects-drenched San Franciscan wig-out music, these are the spaces to block out in your diary:
- 27 June - Glastonbury Festival
- 29 June - Oxford - Academy
- 30 June - Stoke - Sugarmill
- 01 July - Manchester - Academy 2
- 02 July - Northampton - Roadmender
