Kraftwerk on Tour!!! from pitchforkmedia.com:
Kraftwerk Announce Tour of U.S., Europe
Kraftwerk have announced a brief U.S. tour beginning next month. In what will be their first U.S. appearances since a stop in Miami last November, the tour will begin in Washington D.C. on May 30. There will be six dates in the U.S., followed by a longer tour throughout Europe, including a number of the major European festivals. Something about seeing Kraftwerk at a place called the Kalemegdan Fortress sounds incredibly awesome-- or frightening. Either way, here's the schedule: 05-30 Washington, D.C. - 9:30 Club 05-31 Washington, D.C. - 9:30 Club 06-01 New York, NY - Hammerstein 06-02 Detroit, MI - State Theatre 06-04 Chicago, IL - Riviera Theatre 06-06 Los Angeles, CA - Greek Theatre 06-11 Venice, Italy - Biennale Palagalileo 06-13 Belgrade, Serbia and Montenegro - Kalemegdan Fortress 06-14 Sofia, Bulgaria - Palace of Culture 06-16 Skopje, Macedonia - Skopsko Lizgaliste 06-17 Thessaloniki, Greece - Theatro Gis 06-18 Athens, Greece - Lycabettus 06-20 Istanbul, Turkey - Rock Istanbul festival 06-30 Werchter, Belgium - Rock Werchter festival 07-03 Belfort, France - Eurockeennes 07-04 Montreux, France - Montreux Jazz Festival | |

I saw them last year on their german tour and can totally recommend it.
It´s a little irritating to see that they don´t move at all during the whole concert (it´s just the four of them behind keyboards, they don´t talk inbetween songs, they don´t smile, nothing), but they create a great atmosphere. See the man with the blue guitar, maybe one day he`ll be a star... |

I was just gonna axe that very questions. Do they really need two shows in DC? Cancel one of them mo fos and add Minneapolis | |

A lot of acts have been skipping Detroit this past year and it's really starting to piss me off. We're a total musical hotbed and the audiences are always insane. I've heard many other than Prince say it's one of the best places in the world to play. What gives? | |

I saw Kraftwerk live the last time they played in NY in 98. I was so surprised that four guys standing behind keyboards could put on such a good show. I plan on going back this year. | |

Yeah, I know. But I've been noticing the same thing you have in my city. Lots of my favorite acts over the past year have been skipping here and I usually have to travel to Chicago or Toronto to see them. I don't like that trend. | |
