After a sudden reunion following a ten-year hiatus, The Postal Service are selling out arenas around the world. The band announced that they would be releasing a 10th Anniversary Edition of their very popular debut album ‘Give Up’ via Sub Pop Records with a couple of bonus tracks, and that they would be joining the Coachella 2013 lineup. On top of that, the band then announced that they would be embarking on a 2013 US Tour which will kick off on April 9th in Reno, Nevada. Over a dozen of the tour dates have already sold out with second dates added to The Greek Theatre in Berkley, CA and Barclay’s Center in New York. New dates as of today include stops in Austin TX, Pomona CA, Kansas City MO, at St. Paul MN, as well as an appearance at the Free Press Fest in Houston TX.

The full band including Ben Gibbard, Jimmy Tamborello, Jenny Lewis and Laura Burhenn (Bright Eyes, Mynabirds) will embark on this extensive tour for which dates in London, Orlando, Las Vegas and Manchester have already sold out. The reissue of ‘Give Up’ is currently available for pre-order through Sub-Pop Records and includes an immediate download of the previously unreleased single “A Tattered Line of String.”

The band also put together a comical rendition of what would have been their 2002 audition footage which features appearances by Weird Al Yankovic, Tom Delonge, Moby, and Duff McKagan to name a few. The nervous and very mixed musicians try out in front of Tamborello and a Sub-Pop A&R head only to get rejected until Gibbard comes along. Watch the video below!
