This easily qualifies as the most pee-pee-pants-inducing tour announcement of the fall/winter for cool kids. The legendary Neil Young has decided to take less-legendary acts Death Cab For Cutie — man, they’ve come a long way since opening for Pedro The Lion a few years back — and Wilco (as well as even-less-legendary Everest) on the road with him.
Now before the pants peeing begins, they aren’t all on the same bill. The tour’s first leg features Young, Death Cab and Everest. The second leg features Young, Wilco and Everest. Dates are after the jump.

I find this odd. Who gives a damn about death cab for cutie anymore? I used to be a fan, but now they pretty much blow.
preach it, brother. i’m not a fan of the last album in the least.
“Pee-pee-pants-inducing”… I’m so proud of our journalistic maturity.
i calls ‘em like i sees ‘em.
cool kids are indie kids?
I’d kill to see Neil Young live, but I imagine that these tours are going to b-b-b-bring the hipsters out from their hiding.

i didn’t get the hipster memo that death cab is out. i did get the one that said neil young was in, i chose to disregard it. JK sean!!!!!11 haha
