I don&#8217;t care what they call themselves because all that matters at all about this news is the fact that fucking PURSON will be touring the US finally. The tour will kick off on September 22 in Washington, DC at the Fillmore and will wrap up on November 11th at the Monster Mash Festival in Phoenix, AZ.<\/p>\n<p><center><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_8QxD2rUPx4\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/center>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I cannot even begin to say just how giddy I am about this tour so as we speak I&#8217;m saving my pennies so I will have plenty of money to blow on Purson merch. If all goes well, The Great Southern Brainfart will be there to do a full show review and interview with Purson so stay tuned. In the meantime (see what I did there?) check the dates and go dig on some of Purson&#8217;s amazing music.<\/p>\n<p>Purson North American Tour (supporting Ghost)<\/p>\n<p>09\/22 Washington, DC \u2013 The Fillmore<br \/>\n09\/23 Columbus, OH \u2013 Newport Music Hall<br \/>\n09\/25 Pittsburgh, PA \u2013 Stage AE<br \/>\n09\/26 Philadelphia, PA \u2013 Union Transfer<br \/>\n09\/27 New York, NY \u2013 Terminal 5<br \/>\n09\/28 Boston, MA \u2013 House Of Blues<br \/>\n09\/30 Montreal, QC \u2013 Metropolis<br \/>\n10\/01 Toronto, ON \u2013 Sound Academy<br \/>\n10\/02 Detroit, MI \u2013 The Majestic Theater<br \/>\n10\/03 Chicago, IL \u2013 The Riviera<br \/>\n10\/05 Lawrence, KS \u2013 Liberty Hall<br \/>\n10\/06 St. Louis, MO \u2013 The Pageant<br \/>\n10\/08 New Orleans, LA \u2013 The Civic Auditorium<br \/>\n10\/09 Atlanta, GA \u2013 The Tabernacle<br \/>\n10\/10 Orlando, FL \u2013 Beacham Theatre<br \/>\n10\/11 Tampa, FL \u2013 The Ritz<br \/>\n10\/13 Dallas, TX \u2013 House Of Blues<br \/>\n10\/14 San Antonio, TX \u2013 Aztec Theater<br \/>\n10\/16 Albuquerque, NM \u2013 Sunshine Theater<br \/>\n10\/17 Denver, CO \u2013 Summit Music Hall<br \/>\n10\/19 Boise, ID \u2013 Knitting Factory<br \/>\n10\/20 Seattle, WA \u2013 El Corazon<br \/>\n10\/21 Portland, OR \u2013 Roseland Theatre<br \/>\n10\/23 San Francisco, CA \u2013 Warfield<br \/>\n10\/26 Los Angeles, CA \u2013 The Mayan Theater<br \/>\n10\/27 Reno, NV \u2013 Knitting Factory<br \/>\n10\/28 Salt Lake City, UT \u2013 The Depot<br \/>\n10\/30 San Diego, CA \u2013 Northside Park Theater<br \/>\n10\/31 Las Vegas, NV \u2013 House Of Blues<br \/>\n11\/01 Phoenix, AZ \u2013 Monster Mash Festival<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UK psychedelic occult rockers Purson first showed up on my radar back in 2014 with their album The Circle and the Blue Door and flew completely under my radar with their stellar EP release In The Meantime.
