Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol Announce US Tour & Big Dumb Fest 3 Lineup
Okay, so, in 10 days, Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol will have traveled from their hometown in Austin, Texas, to embark on their first European tour, making stops at Obsidian Dust, Sonic Whip, Desertfest London, Desertfest Berlin and Mystic Festival, in addition to copious club shows covering much of the continent. Upon returning home, a week later the trio will host their own all-dayer, in Austin, Big Dumb Fest 3, which they’re also playing.
Four days after that, they’re in New York supporting Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs at Le Poisson Rouge, which is a show the city will talk about for the rest of this year at least, and taking off on a round of East Coast touring that will bring them to the end of June. In July they’re at Unhinged Fest in Denver, and then in August they follow-up the Eastern run by doing a full West Coast jaunt.
Just a band working their ass off. Nothing to see here.
Except for the show, which as I understand it is quite a thing to see indeed.
