The tour kicks off in Manchester, England on November 7, and includes dates in New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. Check out all the dates that have been announced below. The New York stop will feature a conversation with Ian Svenonius, and the Oregon stop will see Marr speaking with Fred Armisen.
