Bad Lieutenant Reschedule North American Shows

Feb.08, 2010 at 5:18 pm, under Tour Dates

Back in November, the Bernard Sumner-fronted Bad Lieutenant had to cancel their scheduled U.S. gigs due to issues with International Customs. In the same statement, Mr. Sumner stated that they still  plan to perform in New York, Chicago and a few other places come 2010.

Staying true to his word, Bad Lieutenant announced today just when those shows will go down, along with a San Francisco show and a quick stop at this year’s Coachella on April 17 (night 1 of 3), which will mark the bands first American performance to date.

On their upcoming American tour, Mr. Sumner had said:

“We are really looking forward to playing our songs live for our fans in the U.S. It’s been some quite time since I have played in America, and we are all very excited about the prospect.” In terms of expectations that fans should have, Sumner added: “The bulk of the set will be Bad Lieutenant songs, but we’ll also play some songs from my past, some New Order songs, some Joy Division, and a few other surprises.”
