[tweetmeme]Mark Burgess is planning to bring ChameleonsVox — the latest incarnation of post-punk favorites The Chameleons — to North America next September and October for a tour that will find the band performing its 1983 debut album Script of the Bridge in its entirety each night.
Burgess has posted his planned 20-date itinerary on Facebook, listing dates and cities, but, for the most part, no venues. He notes the tour is not yet fully confirmed, but that he plans to launch an IndieGoGo crowdfunding campaign “limited items and perks for fans who contribute.”
The trek is planned to open Sept. 16 in Vancouver, B.C., and run through Oct. 7 in Baltimore (see full dates below). So far, he’s only listed venues for shows in Seattle and Columbus, Ohio.
The Script of the Bridge tour will follow dates in Germany and the U.K. this spring during which Chameleons Vox will perform
the band’s 1985 sophomore set
What Does Anything Mean? Basically.
