NYCGF Release Date Confirmed, Tour W/ Pearl Jam
April 25, 2000

NYC Ghosts & Flowers release date confirmed
The information I posted earlier was not correct after all -- NYC Ghosts and flowers release date is May 16th for the US. It seems like some European countries will release it a few days earlier, though...

Sonic Youth to tour with Pearl Jam
Sonic Youth will tour with Pearl Jam for a few dates after they finish touring with Stereolab.
Dates are not confirmed yet but they will be up on The Sonic Youth Concert Chronology immediately (if not already).

Sonic Youth, initially comprising of guitarist / vocalists Thurston Moore and Lee Ranaldo, guitarist / bassist / vocalist Kim Gordon and drummer Richard Edson, were formed in New York City in 1981. A product of the No-Wave music scene of the late 1970s, the group had their roots in abrasive, experimental music, with Moore and Ranaldo having previously worked with the experimental composer Glenn Branca. The band were joined in 1985 by drummer Steve Shelley, and have now recorded 14 albums together, as well as many side and solo projects. Their work has been consistently challenging and innovative, and they are widely regarded as one of the most intriguing and influential bands of their time.
