Weakerthans singer/guitarist John K. Samson has firmed up that European tour that will take place in November.

Samson is playing the dates while The Weakerthans take a break before playing the Soundwave Festival in Australia in February and March. Other than that, he says he wants to spend most of the winter at home in Winnipeg, not doing much of anything.
