News The Vaselines Reuniting?!?!?!!!!!!!

Straight for our big sister up North (and confirmed in the comments this morning), it looks like The Vaselines (ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod) will be playing the Sub Pop 20th Anniversary party.

I was stoked about the My Bloody Valentine reunion tour announced yesterday (although I’m not excited about flying to California for it), but with this news coming today I think I’m about ready to jump out of my skin. Seriously. I couldn’t be any happier right now. MBV and The Vaselines? It’s like I’m twenty all over again, and it feels real good.

Update: P4K is now reporting that Eric’s Trip will also be joining the SP20 lineup. How freaking awesome is that?!

Neither of those bands have played in over 15 years, and I know for a fact that you aren't 35, Rob.

Yes, this is true, but if you had known me when I was twenty you would have known that pretty much everyday I wore my "Feed Me With Your Kiss" MBV shirt with my Vaselines badge neatly attached. And when I say everyday, I'm not exaggerating.
