ANNOUNCEMENT!
As a thank you to Sparks fans for your overwhelming support of the Two Hands One Mouth tour and album, Ron and Russell announce THE REVENGE OF TWO HANDS ONE MOUTH TOUR.
In FALL 2013 the tour will visit new cities in the USA and Europe (as well as some old favorites), and will feature a selection of previously unperformed songs given the THOM treatment. Dates will be announced shortly!
As the guys bid adieu to the THOM format and get ready for their next album and new adventures in film and beyond, these tour dates will be the final ones of this era. So if you missed seeing them the first go-round or want to see new interpretations of more songs, catch them now before it becomes another memorable page in Sparks' history. _________________ Don't let it get me! |

News of more "two hands one mouth" shows is a very welcome big surprise. But it being the final curtain for such a successful vehicle, so adept at opening up new territories, sounds dangerous . However, that's the express train of creativity that is the Mael bros for you. Never do they stay stationery to replenish the buffet carriage when there's boundaries to cross. Its incredibly exciting being a Sparks fan! |

Totally agree, allydodd! Exciting time indeed. Although I'm a bit torn now: I really want them to come back to Lithuania again but I plan to move to the UK come September so...
Still, no matter where will I be at the time, I am very excited about this! |
