Franz Ferdinand has been announced as the second supporting act for the upcoming Green Day. They will be on the road with Green Day from August 8th - August 26th.

Green Day will be doing a special show in New York on May 19th at Webster Hall. Tickets go on sale Saturday (not sure where at), but 300 people can win tickets through MySpace. Details are posted on the Green Day MySpace Blog.

The guys performed "Know Your Enemy" on TV Total in Germany earlier today, the video is up on YouTube.

IGN recently interviewed the band and it was just posted online. They also did an interview with UGO (Part 1 & Part 2 (about songwriting), 3rd Part coming soon). A couple of these interviews are up for download on the forum. That section has 7 other interviews the band has done since April.

The pre-sales went on today, we expect them to announce more pre-sales for some other shows really soon. We got tickets for Phoenix and Philadelphia, anyone else get some pre-sales today?
