With his autobiography ‘See A Little Light: The Trail of Rage and Melody’ due out next month, Bob Mould is gearing up for a busy summer that will include a book tour, dates with his Blowoff DJ side project, an opening slot at two giant Foo Fighters shows in the U.K. and the reissue of Sugar’s classic debut ‘Copper Blue’ on audiophile vinyl.

What began as a modest U.K. tour this June by Morrissey continues to grow, with a new round of eight European concerts added to the itinerary in recent days — resulting in a trek that now stretches 25 dates and goes into August.

The surviving members of INXS — accompanied, presumably, by frontman/game show winner J.D. Fortune — will mount a 25-date North American tour this summer in support of the band’s ‘Original Sin’ collection of re-recorded greatest hits. Berlin opens at least 11 of the U.S. shows.

Einstürzende Neubauten next week will reissue its 2000 album ‘Silence is Sexy’ — an ‘unexpected exploration of silence’ that the group proclaims is ‘the most complex work of the Neubauten’ — before embarking on a short European tour.

While an official announcement is still forthcoming, the reunited Big Audio Dynamite is plotting what looks to be a two-week club tour across the U.S. this August to coincide with its slots at Lollapalooza in Chicago and the Outside Lands Festival in San Francisco.

After spending much of last fall and this past spring touring Europe, former Commotions leader Lloyd Cole finally is ready to support 2010’s ‘Broken Record’ in the United States, and has begun announcing dates for a June tour — with nine on the books so far, all in the eastern part of the country.

Although no official announcement has yet been made, Killing Joke — featuring reunited original lineup of Jaz Coleman, Kevin ‘Geordie’ Walker, Martin ‘Youth’ Glover and Paul Ferguson — apparently has canceled its upcoming North American tour.
