Yet Another Reason for Tucson to Thank Coachella - Modest Mouse to Play at Rialto

Posted By on Tue, Feb 19, 2013 at 1:51 PM

Even if you can't make it to Coachella this year, Tucson seems to be getting lucky with the Coachella bands that are making stops here before, after, or in between their performance at the music festival.

Immediately after finishing their first Friday slot at Coachella on April 12, Modest Mouse will head to Tucson to play a show at The Rialto Theatre on April 13.

In a previous article about the band Phoenix making a two stops in Arizona before their headlining slots at Coachella (one at AVA Amphitheater and the other at Marquee Theatre), we brought up the Coachella radius clause. The clause makes it so that any band playing at Coachella cannot play in Southern California from the time they sign their Coachella contract to 30 days after the festival, according to L.A. Times.

This same clause is likely to be the reason that Modest Mouse will be making two Arizona stops and one central California stop in between their slots at Coachella.
