Upcoming Pretenders Reissues

According to indie music e-zine Pitchfork, Rhino Records will be reissuing the Pretenders CDs Learning to Crawl and Get Close on June 5. As previously mentioned, Chrissie Hynde, Martin Chambers et al will be out on the road with Stray Cats (among others) over the next few months. The Pitchfork article gives the rundown on the two CD reissues and all the tour dates. Rhino reissued the Pretenders first two albums, Pretenders and Pretenders II last October.

While I have been unable to locate an official Pretenders website, they do now have a MySpace page -- click here to check it out.
