Gruff Rhys: CANCELLED

The Super Furry Animal and occasional Neon Neon participant is now on his third album, Hotel Shampoo, which gets an advance Japan release on February 2 (the rest of the world has it scheduled for February 14). The album is apparently named after the singer's penchant for thieving complimentary hotel cleaning products, so Japanese properties will want to glue everything down ahead of his upcoming tour, which hits Tokyo on April 26. Early birds might be interested to know that tickets hit the convenience stores on January 22.
