Sonic Youth to Perform Daydream Nation at Primavera

Barcelona fest also adds Girl Talk, Apples in Stereo, Black Mountain
Sonic Youth are rather amped to perform their masterpiece Daydream Nation live in its entirety. A short while ago, they added a second London performance of the album as part of ATP's Don't Look Back series, and now Thurston, Kim, Lee, and Steve have announced that they will play Daydream three months earlier at Barcelona's Primavera Sound Festival on June 2.
As previously reported, Slint will also play their own magnum opus, Spiderland, at both Primavera and Don't Look Back.
Along with Sonic Youth, Primavera has also added Girl Talk, the Apples in Stereo, Black Mountain, Shannon Wright, and X-Wife to its impressive lineup, with more acts TBA. These folks join Smashing Pumpkins, Modest Mouse, Wilco, Patti Smith, Explosions in the Sky, and heaps more at Barcelona's Parc del Fòrum from May 31 thru June 2. Thanks once again to reader Xavi Guasch for the tip!
Sonic Youth's next tour dates are in April, when they will play with Vooredoms in Japan and travel to China for their first shows there. Thurston Moore, however, has a few shows scheduled this month (including a pair of SXSW appearances) under his own name and with Bark Haze. The Eagles of Hair Metal, a group that includes Keith Fullerton Whitman and Alan Licht, play on the last date.
