In news that will mean very little to anyone over the age of 25, the hispter-riffic Railroad Revival Tour has been bumped from its original location in Chandler to a larger venue in Tempe. In case you don’t fall into that age range (or don’t work in an office full of fresh-faced interns), the RRT is a kitschy-cool concert series featuring several up-and-coming acts traveling from city-to-city via a vintage passenger train.

However, AZ Central is now reporting that the AZ show on April 23, featuring Mumford & Sons, Edward Sharpe and Magnetic Zeros and Old Crow Medicine Show, has been moved from a field overlooking Chandler’s charming Arizona Railroad Museum. Instead, the show will now be held in parking lot in Downtown Tempe. Much to the chagrin of everybody’s fav musical curmudgeon, the Phx New Times‘ Martin Cizmar.
