Normally news about The Hold Steady would come from Lee or Jon, our resident Hold Steady experts, but due to schedule restraints you’ll hear it from me! Now, I shouldn’t get your hopes up too high. When I say “U.S.” it really means “the northeast” and when I say “tour dates” it means “12 shows in the first half of April.” But still! The Hold Steady! Live! As Pitchfork pointed out, it’s the first time the band is touring without keyboardist Franz Nicolay, but they’re not letting that get them down. The show must go on! And it must be contained to one region over 15 days!
