It's becoming fashionable for the eighties and the nineties musical pioneers to embrace the spotlight lately. Just look at what went down at Coachella this past weekend - The Stone Roses and Blur raising hysteria almost as much as Phoenix + R. Kelly. Joining the British invasion at the famed music fest was New Order, the Manchester band that gave birth to the prototypical electronica known as "Blue Monday" in 1983. With festival appearances scheduled for Lollapalooza and Osheaga in August, New Order will be performing at select cities in July, kicking off the tour in Austin. New York's Holy Ghost are supporting most of the dates. Tickets for most of the shows go on sale later this week. Check out the tour dates below and catch New Order on Jimmy Kimmel Live today.
