Inizia domani a Bourges (Francia) un lungo giro di concerti prima in Europa e poi negli Stati Uniti degli irriconoscibili/inconfondibili Residents, a lungo progettato con il nome Dog Stab! e più volte rinviato negli ultimi tre anni a causa della pandemia. Ora si intitola Faceless Forever (con il sottotitolo 50th Anniversary Dog Stab Tour) proprio come la recente pubblicazione enciclopedica redatta da Jim Knipfel e Brian Poole. Nessuna tappa ahimè in Italia.
First announced under the title Dog Stab! in November 2019 and intended to begin in April 2020 with dates in America and Canada, the tour originally showcased the group's 2020 studio album Metal, Meat & Bone and the classic albums Duck Stab!/Buster & Glen and The Third Reich 'n Roll. Dog Stab! was postponed in March 2020 following the global spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus, eventually being rescheduled to April and May 2021. As the pandemic continued into 2021, these dates were again postponed. The tour was then expected to begin on August 19th 2021 with a show at the Wonder Ballroom in Portland, Oregon; however, a week before the show it was announced that almost all dates on the North American leg of the tour would be cancelled. Dog Stab! finally commenced on September 15th 2021, with three American shows (at the Regent in Los Angeles, the Castro in San Francisco on the 17th, and the Rio in Santa Cruz on the 18th) going ahead as scheduled. After further postponements, the now retitled Faceless Forever tour resumed with a special preview performance at the Mill Valley Film Festival in October 2022, with current dates in Europe and the United Kingdom in January and February 2023.
