Those Ataris? For real?



Glancing through my local event listings and noticed that the Ataris (yes, the boys of freakin' summer) are still playing shows, still going on tour, with...wait for it...a new album this summer. Who likes The Ataris anymore? Aren't they stuck in the dreaded no man's land? The mainstream doesn't know they exist anymore after their flavor of the week status has ended, yet they're original fans remember the betrayal. No place for the Ataris to go. Maybe they should bank on whole new level of nostalgia and call themselves The N64s.

Tour dates (in case you're interested) and the "Boys of Summer" vid for (old time's sake) after the jump.
