If you’re a fan of Popblerd favorite Mike Doughty, you’re probably aware that he has been re-recording some of the songs he made when he was the leader/main creative force of Soul Coughing, back in the Nineties.

As Mike has long expressed his reticence at performing songs made by his former band, I can only assume he has come to terms with whatever anger he felt towards that era. Thankfully. Because I’ve seen Mike probably 12 times at this point, and I’d love to hear “Circles” once.

Looks like I’ll get my chance, because Mike just announced that he’s hitting the road, and performing ONLY Soul Coughing songs. No “Looking At The World From The Bottom Of A Well,” no “Busting Up A Starbucks,” no “27 Jennifers.” Just Soul Coughing. Check the dates below.

Oh, and as for the album, which is titled…err, well, the title is all of the songs that are on it. You should already have it in hand if you contributed to the Kickstarter campaign. If not, you can get your grubby little mitts on a copy September 17th.
