The Late B.P. Helium at the Townhall has announced some Of Montreal shows for their late summer tour. They will be touring with none other than The Minders, who have a new album due out in July! Some of the details are still to be finalized, but on the other hand, some of the tickets are on sale now (if you're near Madison, I'll see you at the Barrymore Theatre).

We also have some new dates for The Essex Green courtesy of their MySpace page, so I'm providing an updated list for their tour, as well.
