In addition to festival appearances at WJRR Earthday Birthday, Welcome To Rockville, Carolina Rebellion, Rise About Fest and Rock on the Range, the global rock heavyweights will headline New York City (Terminal 5), Baltimore (Rams Head Live), and Chicago (Concord Music Hall), among other cities, before wrapping Saturday, May 23rd in Houston (House of Blues). Tickets will go on sale starting today, (February 17th) at Slashonline.com (see itinerary below). Expect more dates to be announced next week.
