The Magnetic Fields have announced a US Tour that will hit Jersey City on Thursday, October 23. Tickets go on pre-sale at 9 a.m. this morning. Your SAK correspondent wants you to note that said concert date falls right in the middle of this year’s CMJ Music Marathon, so don’t buy tickets now if you think you may want to Rock Indier that day should the opportunity arise (and your SAK correspondent is pretty sure it will).

There is, however, a large gap in the touring schedule before that local date, so it would be reasonable to expect more area dates to be added:
