In support of Yes, their tenth full-length album(!), synth-pop kings Pet Shop Boys have just announced an eighteen-date North American tour, to begin at the end of August. The show promises to be filled with plenty of costumes, capers and theatricality. Unfortunately, the tour schedule is focused on the coasts, only coming inland for a single night in Chicago. If you're a big enough fan that you'll travel for this one, you can sign up for June 8 presale tickets here. The rest of us will have to wait for some dates within reasonable driving distance to be added. There's still time. After the break, see how the schedule stacks up, as of today:
