Tucson, Arizona is home to many things (I should know, I went to school there for four years), including cheap Mexican food, beautiful scenic views, and every Tucson indie kid’s pride and joy, Calexico. Yes, the "alt-country" band that is BFF’s with Iron & Wine hails from good ’ol Southern Arizona (the best part of the state — fuck you, Phoenix.) Fortunately, for those of you who have never been to Tucson and have yet to experience Calexico, they’re touring! But mostly in Canada and a few random states like Nevada and Rhode Island. Oh well, better than nothing at all.

Bring your own Mexican food:
