One… Two… Three… And swoop!

It’s time to dust off your your sombre black clothes (trailing sleeves and skirts, please), pull out the chokers and white makeup, and practice your gothy dance moves ("Now eat the poison apple…").

Delerium are going on their first very first tour.

Delerium anchor Bill Leeb and his partner-in-crime, Rhys Fulber, are bringing the goth-dance-swirly music duo to various venues throughout the U.S. and Canada for a month-long tour. With three Canadian stops (Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal), it might be your first and only chance to glimpse the dance genre-bending pioneers. Delerium will be touring in support of their recent release, Chimera, which came out earlier this year.

There’s no word on whether any of Delerium’s famous collaborators will be joining the tour (we’d hazard a guess that the only place Sarah McLachlan might hit the stage would be at the Vancouver show), but the lads have snagged Kristy Thirsk (who appeared on Semantic Spaces’ "Flowers Become Screens") and Shelley Harland for vocal accompaniment.

Opening for Delerium will be Conjure One, Fulber’s current project. There will also be one other band joining the tour. Might we perhaps suggest something along the lines of, say, Front Line Assembly or Ohgr?

Well I'm not goth, but I'm definitely looking forward to that :) I just hope my schedule allows for it.

Im gonna by my tickets as soon as I can,
Man I wish I was still in Seattle the showbox is a great venue. but NYC will do.

Damn tickets in ny arnt on sale yet i think

Man, I would love to go to the show in Los Angeles... but I'll probably have a job by then, and I know that overtime is pretty much standard for it. Dang. Oh well, if anyone goes from this area, tell me. I want a delerium/conjure one T-Shirt. :D

I am dragging Spleen to the El Rey - YOU ARE GOING WITH ME, BIOTCH!

Hmm i havent heard any of their stuff for awhile...*hops on kazaa*

you deffinetelly don't have to be goth to want to go to that ;)
I'll be there!

PS - I just hope they play more of their older material... so much more inovative and entertaining, than the new pop

Yeah, I agree... I don't really like the direction it's going in the past couple albums.

Well, I got my tickets... have you?!?
