Kings Of Leon will be announcing a fall 2008 US tour tomorrow!

I'm on their mailing list and received an e-mail about Sex On Fire which also mentioned the tour.

I'm gonna guess that it'll coincide with their September 23rd appearance on Letterman.
I pledge to you a government that will not only work well, but wisely, its ability to act tempered by prudence, and its willingness to do good, balanced by the knowledge that government is never more dangerous than when our desire to have it help us blinds us to its great power to harm us.

    There's a constant ringing in my ears
    Sense of humor's void and numb
    And I'm bored to tears.......

    Well, you know they will definitely play Orlando and Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area. My wife's a huge fan too, so I would be able to talk her into going to maybe two shows- I'd be pumped with going to at least one- more would be better though :D

    Haha I've seen The Roots and it was awesome. I just hope KoL will play the NY area on a day I can attend. It would suck having to walk out on the once and then missing their tour.

    I hope they extensively tour North America for 2-3 months with like 60-80 dates. That will leave them with a lot of time to Tour Europe in the beginning of next year ;)

  • When? Where?
  • Since they're touring Europe in December, I would guess between end of Sept and Nov is when they'll be in the states. Hopefully one in Milwaukee!

    I feel that too. Shouldn't they have announced Sept dates earlier though?

    I paid $25 last Halloween for a KOL show- so a year later, gas prices up much more, new album- $35 sounds about right
