To provide a diversion from their current low-cal slanging match with Noel Gallagher, Kaiser Chiefs are heading off on tour in October. The dates are pretty intimate by their standards, and kick off on October 8 with a show, suitably, in Leeds. The band's new single, "Never Miss A Beat" comes out a couple of days earlier on October 6. As Gallagher has helpfully pointed out to the press, it's produced by Mark Ronson. It also features backing vocals from Lily Allen and New Young Pony Club. The Kaisers' third album, Off With Their Heads, follows on October 13. Here are those dates, anyway: 8th October - Leeds Academy 13th October - Manchester Academy 15th October - Southampton Guildhall 16th October - Reading Rivermead 17th October - Glasgow Barrowlands 19th October - Leicester De Montford Hall 20th October - London Kentish Town Forum 21st October - London Kentish Town Forum Tickets go on sale at 9am on August 21. The support acts are Late Of The Pier and a new Leeds band, The Hair. For more music and film news click here
