"Following completely sold out fall and winter tours of the U.S., Canada and Australia, Tegan and Sara will begin their "Out Of Hibernation Tour" in April on the West Coast and work their way east. As you already know, Tegan and Sara live are an out-of-the-ordinary experience not to be missed. Tickets for all shows will go on sale Friday, Jan. 18." (read).

"oh, it happens every time we stop touring for more than a few weeks. i miss seeing nine grown ups eating cereal in their pajama's in the front lounge of the bus. there's nothing like being 27, bra-less, in striped pajama's with a cloak of coma over your eyes amongst friends.
its lonely living alone and so i bought a television to watch the news. but the news gives me hives and heart burn and other stress induced ailments. so now i've been alternating educational evenings on even days and mindless network comedies on odds." (read Sara's MySpace blog).

A Conversation With Tegan
"Is the banter ever rehearsed?
We don’t even rehearse, so... [Laughs] No, the banter is pretty off the cuff. Sometimes I wish we would [rehearse] because we can be very funny and we also don’t usually tell the same story twice. Sara will start to tell something that I feel like I’ve heard before and I’m right in there, happy to be like “Uh, you told that already.” And then she’s like “Fuck!” and then will tell a variation or a story that correlates. It’s so funny because it’s something that our fans have talked a lot about - a lot of kids will come and see a lot of shows on tour, and they can because even though we’re playing a lot of the same songs, the show is never the same. The stories really influence the mood of the show and the mood of the audience - and they affect the temperament behind the music that night. I think that makes the shows diverse and I also think it makes the songs stand out and sound different than the record. That’s something we have to do because it would be so fucking boring to go out and sound exactly like the record."
