Magnetic Fields Doing Fancy Theatre Shows in Dallas and Austin

As if the Magnetic Fields finally coming to a city near you wasn't enough, now you get to see them from your own comfy seat that some sweet old ticket-checker-lady will lead you to by flashlight. Folks in Dallas have the chance to see them at the Vaudville era Majestic Theatre on Monday 10/13 and those in Austin can see them Tuesday 10/14 at The Paramount Theatre on Congress.

MF's four piece crew fronted by pop mastermind Stephen Merritt will be performing lots o' tracks from their most recent album Distortion, which, just a heads up, will be performed acoustic - sans distortion. Fans that want to track their tour which starts this Friday (10/10) can do so on their official tour blog here

My tip for these shows: put on your good pair of jeans and cleanest chucks and take that special someone out for tapas beforehand... perfect opportunity for an indie-riffic date with a touch of class
