Last month, reunited alt-rock romantics the Afghan Whigs hinted in an interview with Exclaim! that they would be hitting a number of North American cities later this year to support their new Do to the Beast LP. Now, the band's updated tour itinerary confirms stops in Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto.
