The first time I saw
The Kooks, it was in Chicago in 2007, and it was because their small tour did not include Minneapolis... which I noted that I saw
three Minneapolis people in Chicago, just to see The Kooks.
What I wrote about them in 2007 was that they stole their name from a David Bowie song, and at the time only had one album
Inside In/Inside Out... so as expected, they basically played the entire album live:

Here are some information on the openers for this 2014 US tour dates:

|
Halsey (stagename for Ashley Frangipane) has a debut EP
Room 93 is set for release on October 28th via Astralwerks. W♥M fans will know that I have a personal love for all-things Astralwerks, so I will definitely be paying attention to this New Jersey girl.
Portland's
Priory is currently on tour with The Kooks. The duo (Brandon Rush and Kyle Sears) met in a flophouse in Portland... and the two had a hit with "Weekend" (Warner Bros.), which debut strong on the alternative radio charts for its first week. TIME dubbed them as 'Artist You Should Be Listening To Right Now.'
