ANDREW W.K. IS GONNA GET WET ALL OVER AGAIN
I am neither the resident Andrew W.K. superfan nor the resident Andrew W.K. conspiracy expert in the MetalSucks Mansion (although I did attend this stupid Q&A that one time), but like everyone else in the world, I do own I Get Wet, and it is a really, really fun album.
So, not at all bad news: Wet is turning ten (Already?!?), and Mr. W.K. is celebrating with his first headlining tour in seven years, on which he will play the seminal party-metal release in its entirety. Which sounds like it could be a blast, no? I mean, it’s not the tour coming up that I’m most excited about, but I wouldn’t pass up an opportunity to go, either. They might as well call it the “Get Shitfaced and Pretend It’s Still 2002” tour.
