We were just waiting for a band to tour in mid-march so that we could use that line, in retrospect, it probably wasn't worth it, but hey ho. Foals are still heading the way of the United Kingdom next year, and that's cause for joy.
Six shows are on the agenda as the band continue a wave of activity that has seen them let rip an impressive performance on Jools Holland and recording an odd (to say the least) video for their latest single "Balloons". Before the year is out, they also have the remnant of their support slots with Bloc Party. Tickets for their headlining tour go on sale from 09:00 hours on Friday (Nov 30).
Here be the 2008 tour dates. Beneath it be the video for "Balloons".
