Hey Gang Gang Dance fans! Want to know where your favorite space-age tribal dance outfit is going to be in the near future? Well, just grab a box of Gang Gang Flakes and reach all the way to the bottom, straight through all that sugar-coated wheat goodness. That’s right, there’s a special Gang Gang Dancecoder ring at the bottom of that box! This piece of high-tech spy equipment is your key to unlocking the mysteries of the band’s forthcoming summer tour.
Once you’ve got your special decoder ring, take it to the liner notes of God’s Money (TMT Review). Yes, believe it or not, Gang Gang Dance have hidden their summer tour itinerary in the notes for a record that came out over five years ago, instead of burying them in the way more obvious liners of their forthcoming Eye Contact on 4AD. Such are their mystical powers. Now, I’lll never tell the exact details of the Gang Gang Dance tour, unless those details are in the form of the dates at the bottom of this story, but I can give you some hints. Hint number one: it starts in Brooklyn. Hint number two: the band goes to Europe. Hint number three: after returning from Europe, they go to the American East Coast. Go, Gang Gang warriors, crack the uncrackable code!
