This October and November, Portland indie group the Decemberists will hit the road and play not one, but two shows in each city they stop in.

 

The tour is called "The Long and Short of It" and will feature one night of the band's shorter and more pop-happy songs such as 'O Valenicia', and yet another night of the lengthier epics that the Decemberists are equally celebrated for. Pre-sale tickets will go on sale this Saturday August 25th Noon EST here. In order to purchase these tickets you must buy entrance to both nights, but a $10 discount and poster are included.
