Ever daydream about seeing The Dear Hunter play their Act albums in their entirety? Because this spring that’s exactly what’s going to happen. The band will be taking the road to play two Act records in their entirety — Act II: The Meaning of, and All Things Regarding Ms. Leading and Act III: Life and Death. But wait… there’s more.
