For the second album in a row, notoriously road shy David Berman is taking his Silver Jews on tour. In support of Lookout Mountain, Lookout Sea, the Joos will undertake a six week road trip across the face of this great nation, and will probably find some characters to lovingly paint into the next Silver Jews album, hypothetically due in 2011. Fellow Drag City-ites Monotonix—who Berman discovered while touring in Israel—will open on select dates. Get your fix while they get their kicks:
