Bloc Party, Clay Your Hands Say Yeah (pictured below), The Fray, Franz Ferdinand, Billy Talent, Of Montreal, Camera Obscura, Evanescene, Cold War Kids (who'll also be playing gigs with CYHSY), Page France and many other artists have announced concert tour show dates and venues.

Concert announcements are coming through the wires every week. IRC will do it’s best to get them updated. Please check the IRC website to get the most up-to-date listings.

Bloc Party (in the photo on the right) has released it's tour dates for its first U.S. tour with their second album to be released on February 9th. See tour dates below.

We all know how fast time goes by, and kick ourselves in the ass for missing concerts we so wanted to see, so it is never too early to start making plans to see your favorite indie rock and pop artists live and on stage.

Email alerts for your favorite artists are one of the things I'm working on so that visitors to IRC can customize how they receive instant news, updates, concert dates, releases, etc.
