Ok, I fully expect some indie kids to faint or spill on their American Apparel t-shirt with this announcement. After all, this band was the group who, based on your comments, one-upped The New Pornographers at the Orpheum here in Madison last month. They seem to make a habit of that. Anybody remember their blistering opening set before the Decemberists at the Barrymore a few years back? I do.

Okkervil River will play the Barrymore Theatre on Sunday, September 14th. This show comes only a week after the group releases The Stand Ins via Jagjaguwar on September 9th.

Tickets: $16.50 Advance / $18.50 Day of Show
On Sale: Thursday, June 5 at 10am
