(+44), others join Fall Out Boy for Civic Tour
Blink-182 spin-off (+44) will join the previously announced headliners Fall Out Boy on the bill of the upcoming Honda Civic Tour , organizers have announced.
The 42-date outing is set to kick off April 18 in Charlotte, NC, with tickets scheduled to go on sale Feb. 17 in most cities. Pre-sales are available starting Tuesday (2/6) through a promotion with Target stores or Feb. 14 through the Honda Civic Tour website. Dates are listed below.
The tour's organizers also confirmed that The Academy Is... ., Paul Wall and Cobra Starship will round out the roster of acts on board for the trek.
The tour, which organizers tout as a combination of hot acts, moderate ticket prices and environmental consciousness, will also be used to promote the Honda Civic Hybrid. The members of Fall Out Boy designed custom features for one of the vehicles, which will be showcased at each venue and given away to a lucky concertgoer who enters a drawing, according to a press release.
Fall Out Boy's next album, "Infinity On High," hit stores today, and the band simultaneously embarked on a one-day, three-city, publicity-stunt tour for which the members are jetting from New York City to Chicago to Los Angeles.
(+44)'s debut album, "When Your Heart Stops Beating," hit stores last November. The disc was produced by the band's former Blink-182 contingent, Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker, with longtime Blink-182 producer Jerry Finn serving as executive producer.
