Hey, Franz Ferdinand! Play at My House

A myspace bulletin was posted by the bassist:

Hi, just a quick message to let you know that we’re planning a couple of small shows in Glasgow and one in New York in the next few weeks. We’ll be trying out some new songs and inviting some other bands that we like to play with us. We’ll let you know the details in the next few days, hopefully see you there. Bob 

Hmmm, let's see what's open:

Bowery Ballroom: June 5, 13, 21, 24, 25, 27, 29

Mercury Lounge: June 10, 19, 26, 27, 28

Maxwell's: June 9, 10, 11, 17, 18, 19

Casa de Chris: Now-thru June 2008

Studio B?

Nah, Studio C .... Studio Chris

alex just bought a place in greenpoint... studio b makes sense.

Alex has bought a place in greenpoint? Since when?

As the Rakes are in town on the 13th, I'm hoping Franz will include them in the whole "inviting some other bands" bit.
