Staind leaves its mark with late-summer tour

Rockers Staind , who spent the spring headlining the Jagermeister Music Tour, have rolled out a new batch of shows that will keep the band on the road through the end of summer.

Following an early July run through Hawaii, Australia and New Zealand, Staind returns to the US roadways for a new round of touring that launches in early August and so far stretches into mid-September. The group's schedule also includes a late-July festival performance in Wisconsin.

Three Days Grace , Seether and Soil will open a number of the upcoming shows, and additional acts--including Breaking Benjamin, Evans Blue, Dropping Daylight, Nonpoint and others-will rotate through the opening slot. Details are included in the itinerary below.

Members of Staind's official fan club have a shot at meet-and-greet passes for many of the upcoming shows. More information is available at the band's website.

Staind's fifth album, "Chapter V," debuted last summer at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 album chart, and is the Massachusetts-based band's third consecutive chart-topper. The disc features the hit singles "Right Here," "Falling" and "Everything Changes."
