Great news, fellows! Toro Y Moi, who we may have covered on this site once or twice, is going on tour with Caribou, who released an album we just reviewed. We are totally on top of things. You should check your things, or more accurately the top of your things. That’s where you’ll find us. Because we’re on the top of things. It’s like taking a figurative statement and making it literal for the benefit of comedy, you know? No? Don’t worry, I’ll let myself out.
Anyway, the kicker for this tour, though, is that Toro Y Moi will be bringing along his first full live band to back him up. If you go, you’ll get a piece of history! So, go, you lazy bum!
