Throughout this jaunt, the band will be bringing their fervent live show to familiar cities, as well as municipalities that have yet to be graced (or confronted) with a Bad Seeds live experience.The Bad Seeds were the first rock group of note to come out of Corpus Christi, Texas, itself a hotbed of garage-rock activity during the mid- and late-1960s. The band's sound was the raunchy Rolling Stones-influenced garage-punk typical of Texas rock groups in the mid-'60s.Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds are pleased to welcome Mark Lanegan as supporting act for both nights. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds will also make their debut on the landmark television music series Austin City Limits, filming a July 20 performance to broadcast in fall 2014 as a part of Austin City Limits' 40th Anniversary Season. Drafthouse Films, the film distribution arm of the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, will host a series of special advance screenings of Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard's inventive, lyrical portrait of Nick Cave's creative process, 20,000 Days On Earth, to coincide with Cave's US tour. A larger-scale traditional theatrical release will follow in early fall. The film made its world premiere at this year's Sundance Film Festival where it was awarded both ""Best Directing"" and ""Best Editing"" awards in the World Documentary category.. Event Details.
