Toronto rockers DANKO JONES have checked in with the following announcement:
"We're happy to let you know that we will be main support to ALICE IN CHAINS in Penticton, BC on August 8th. Get your tickets via this link . All tour dates here ."Danko Jones recently released their controversial new video, for the track 'Legs', featured on the Rock And Roll Is Black And Blue album, available via Bad Taste Records.
The video, directed by Bruce LaBruce, can be seen below. LaBruce, who is best known for his sexually charged and culturally challenging productions have been looking forward to working with the band for a long time, says LaBruce:
“I've known Danko and John for many years, and I went to many Danko Jones shows when they were first starting out in Toronto and in New York.After reconnecting with Danko last year at his book launch, we decided it was finally time for me to do a video for them.”The video itself is in line with the direct vision LaBruce had to create a spectacular and unexpected video for the song. “Danko suggested their song Legs, and for some reason I immediately thought of some of my sexy and leggy acquaintances in the M-F transsexual community. I really love the work of the famous photographer Pierre Molinier, whose gender bending photographs have influenced a variety of artists, so I decided to pay tribute to his work in the video.”
