When Iggy Pop and Josh Homme announced their new album Post Pop Depression, they promised that "there won't be hardly any shows, and they won't be in big places, and you won't be able to get a ticket." And that promise is true. On Wednesday (Jan. 27), Pop announced a round of tour dates at clubs and theaters around the world.
For those who want tickets, good luck.
Pop's tour will kick off with a solo show at New York's Carnegie Hall on Feb. 22, but the full Post Pop Depression tour will begin a month later in Seattle. The North American tour will hit up major markets like Chicago, Toronto, Boston and New York (again) at venues that have a capacity ranging from roughly 3000 to 6000.
After Pop and crew take on North America, they'll hit up Europe for a string of shows before Pop once again performs a string of solo shows.
