It's an '80s 'splosion! British post-punkers The Psychedelic Furs had already confirmed a NYC date with oldschool Talking Heads offshoot Tom Tom Club for October 3 at Irving Plaza (tickets), but according to BrooklynVegan the bands have now announced a full-on US tour for September and October.
In case you don't catch them on the 3rd, this tour includes two more (kinda-)NYC-area performances at the Ridgefield Playhouse in Ridgefield, CT and the Wellmont Theatre in Montclair, NJ on October 6 and 8 respectively. Tickets for Ridgefield are already on sale, while the Joisey show tickets are onsale to the public tomorrow (September 1) at noon.
I've never seen The Psychedelic Furs live, but having seen Tom Tom Club at Brooklyn's McCarren Park Pool (R.I.P.) 3 years ago I can confirm that they're still totally awesome. Check out the full tour dates and classic videos below.
