A true Do-It-Yourself punk ethic is hard to find these days, but the guys in Titus Andronicus have got it down. With their new civil war-themed album due March 9 (XL Recordings), Titus Andronicus have announced a lot–A LOT–of North American dates for an upcoming tour, deemed the “Monitour” (cheekily inspired by the title of their next album). The tour will span from the beginning of March to the end of April, and there won’t be any glamorous Hilton hotel stays for these guys. The DIY approach comes in here: they are asking fans for night-to-night accommodations. Frontman Patrick Stickles writes, “Accommodations need not be anything special at all – a floor and a ceiling are our only two requirements, though beds/couches/beanbags/etc. are always nice.” Email the guys at titusandronicustheband@gmail.com if you’d like to let the band crash at your place.
They are also hoping to fill in the empty days in their schedule, as long as you can help them get booked. Check out the dates below (via P4K):
