The amazing Mark Gardener (ex-Ride) has announced a handful of west coast dates in the U.S. All the dates are with a full band and Sky Parade. Unfortunately for those of us NOT on the west coast, it doesn't look like more gigs are going to be added. If you're on the west coast do yourself a favor and go see Gardener + friends here:
6/21 - KEXP radio, Seattle
6/21 - Barboza, Seattle
6/22 - Star Theater, Portland
6/23 - Cafe Du Nord, San Francisco
6/24 - Part Time Punks Gaze Fest @ the Echo Plex, Los Angeles
By the way, the Cafe Du Nord show is 20th anniversary celebration of Ride's classic record Going Blank Again. Should be an AMAZING show.
