John Lydon hopes to use the proceeds from Public Image Ltd.’s upcoming U.S. tour to fund the recording of the reconstituted band’s first new album since 1992’s ‘That What Is Not.’

The reunited Faith No More continue to eke out U.S. tour dates, today announcing a New York City concert in July — the band’s first East Coast show in more than a decade — to follow its three sold-out San Francisco gigs in April in advance of the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival.

The reconstituted Public Image Ltd. this morning announced three more U.S. concerts — April 28 in Pontiac, Mich.; April 30 Milwaukee, Wis.; and May 16 in Northampton, Mass. — on the band’s post-Coachella tour this spring.

John Lydon will take the reformed Public Image Ltd. on its first North American tour in 18 years this spring, today announcing a 16-date club tour to follow the band’s performance at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival.

Echo & The Bunnymen today unveiled a 10-date North American tour in April and May that will follow the band’s appearance at the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival — a run of dates that serves as a make-up for the November trek derailed by the group’s much-publicized IRS issues.

Echo & The Bunnymen are set to unveil a “large” post-Coachella tour of the U.S. next week, although several dates — April 18 in Reno, April 19 in San Francisco and May 1 in New York City — already have emerged.

New York gets another crack at two hot tickets: The Specials have added a second NYC date and a-ha a third to their very brief U.S. tours this spring. The reunited 2 Tone ska act plays Terminal 5 on April 20, while the Norwegian pop trio has added a third and final show at the Nokia Theatre on May 8.
