Yes, Peelander-Z are touring. Again.

To which we say: Fuck, yes.

Last time we posted some Peelander-Z tour dates, Jake promised not to miss them if they passed through our beloved City of Angels again. Well, Jake’s gonna have to make good on his promise, because the world’s greatest Japanese Action Punk band is bringing their chaotic, squid-bedeviled live show back to L.A. And they’re playing here the Saturday before Halloween, no less. I might have to break out my silver pants for this one.

Here are the full dates for Peelander’s “Metal Man” fall tour. Sadly, this will be your last chance to see the band with Peelander Red, who is quitting after this tour to teach full-time at Ninja High School. (Here’s his long-winded but touching farewell message.)
