After news last week that the Gorillaz would bring their Escape to Plastic Beach World Tour to North America in October, a list of cities is finally surfacing. While no exact venues or dates have been released, Gorillaz member Murdoc Niccals has been sharing hints from his Twitter account.
Below you’ll find each hint and our corresponding guess as to which city they’ll be stopping in.
The full list of cities and details of the North American leg of the tour are expected to be released soon.
Boston
Guess the City USA Clue: I’m the real Green Monster, what is this imposter in Boston? We may have to pay him a visit.
New York City – MSG
Guess the City USA Clue: Headed to the Big Apple to make the most famous venue on earth way, way more famous.
DC
Guess the City USA Clue: Murdoc is dead-set on streaking across Michele’s lawn. We should try to make his dream come true
Detroit
Guess the City USA Clue: Detroit Rock City – Home of Kiss, MC5, The Stooges, Motown, Detroit Techno – sounds like our kind of town.
Chicago
Guess the City USA Clue: The Bulls didn’t get Lebron, we might try to pay a visit to lift their spirits
Austin
Guess the City USA Clue: We hear there’s a place where the denizens of this town are dedicated to “Keeping It Weird”. We’ve got a few ideas
Denver
Guess the City USA Clue: If Denver is the Mile High City, do you have to be a member of the Mile High Club to live there?
LA
Guess the City USA Clue: Anyone know if LiLo is taking visitors?
Dallas
Guess the City USA Clue: Steers and Beers and BBQ are what we’re looking forward to. We hear it may be known for more than the Bushes.
Philly
Guess the City USA Clue: Who can we call to get the Liberty Bell onto our stage when we hit the States? Seems it would make a great Gong
Oakland
Guess the City USA Clue: We may need to pay a visit to our brethren, the Raiders.
Seattle
Guess the City USA Clue : Any city that was the home of Bruce Lee, Jimi Hendrix and Grunge is our kind of town.
