Two of the most loved bands in the world have announced that they'll be playing a few dates together. It's Hot Chip and LCD Soundsystem, by the way, in case you were wondering or anything. They've confirmed a total of eight dates together, some of which are very soon and very far away. There are others which are further away in time but closer to home, including four in the UK.
Anyway, here are the upcoming dates and those which take place, together, in this grand old country of ours. No Scotland, though, which is a bit of a shame, it's usually Wales which misses out.
July: 29 - Melbourne, Australia, Festival Hall 30 - Woodford, Australia, Splendour In The Grass
August: 1 - Japan, Nigita, Fuji Rock Festival
October: 11 - London, Alexandra Palace 12 - Cardiff, International Arena 13 - Sheffield, Magna Arena 15 - Manchester, Apollo
And here are both band's most recent videos, just to whet your appetite, like.
