EEEEEEEEE!!!

Straight from the Matador Records website:

Belle & Sebastian / New Pornographers - We'd better rent a big bus.
While venues and dates are still being confirmed, we can announce that Belle & Sebastian and The New Pornographers will be touring together in early '06 throughout North America, the former in support of the forthcoming 'The Life Pursuit', the latter behind the consensus pick for the album of 2006, 'Twin Cinema'.

This may be the greatest news of '05. We will update as soon as the dates emerge.
