Yaz To Reunite - U.S. Tour Dates Announced


When I was in college I was a HUGE fan of the synth-pop duo Yaz. Although they only made two albums, Alison Moyet’s vocals, and Vince Clarke’s (formerly with Depeche Mode – later Erasure) electronic musical skills were a great combination. I listened THE HELL out of both cassettes (yes bitches, I said CASSETTES!).

A few weeks ago Joe at Joe.My.God. announced that Yaz was reuniting to do a mini-tour in the U.K. to help publicize a new “greatest hits” CD set. Then yesterday Joe listed a few U.S. tour dates – including NYC!! Here are the dates/cities:

Jul 07 - Oakland, CA Paramount Theatre
Jul 10 - Los Angeles, CA Orpheum Theatre
Jul 11 - Los Angeles, CA Orpheum Theatre
Jul 14 - Chicago, IL Chicago Theatre
Jul 16 - New York, NY Terminal 5
Jul 17 - New York, NY Terminal 5

I REALLY should go - especially since I NEVER do anything exciting anymore.
