Candy Carol Tour

The Candy Carol Tour was a 1991 U.S. concert tour by American electronic group Book of Love, in support of the act's third studio album, Candy Carol, which was released in January 1991. The U.S. tour lasted for three months, starting on March 2 and ending on June 1, 1991.

Contents

The first show of the tour took place at O'dell's in Baltimore, Maryland, with local synthpop band Moderation opening the show. (see External links for video) Throughout the tour, various local bands in each city functioned as the opening act. The tour concluded with the final show in Richmond, Virginia.

For the New York City and Cleveland dates, Marc Roselli, a Jesuit priest and brother of Lauren Roselli, joined Lauren and band onstage to perform his Sanctus section of "Counting The Rosaries".

The setlist was heavy on both new Candy Carol album tracks (up to eight new songs), and tracks from their debut, Book of Love.
