Getting Busy w/ the Meat Puppets



With their 13th full length, "Lollipop", released this past April, the Meat Puppets will be touring throughout September on a southern states romp. Things kick off next Wednesday in Baton Rouge, then roll into New Orleans, and on to Florida for the weekend. Look for tour blogs and Twitter updates as these shows should offer reports about a new set list.

The band is also pleased to reissue of its classic "Up on the Sun", on vinyl and on the Meat Puppets own new label, Meat Puppets Music, on September 13th. The vinyl will be available in select record stores as well as at the Meat Puppets OFFICIAL WEBSITE. Cool new shirts and posters are available with vinyl and CD packages featuring 'Up on the Sun' artwork. Great choices abound for all occasions, send your child back to school wearing a band tee that shows he or she has some taste!
