Spoon Hitting the Road - And Coming to Amoeba!

With their new album, 'Gimme Fiction', set for official release on May 20, Spoon is hitting the road in the coming months. I can't say I'm loving the new CD; it's OK, but a bit boring and nowhere near as good as 'Kill the Moonlight.' But having seen two Britt Daniel solo shows in the past year, I am really looking forward to seeing the full band perform live. In addition to the June 20 show (at the Fillmore, I believe, though it doesn't specify below), Spoon is doing an in-store gig at the legendary Amoeba Music in the Haight.
