Blondie, Pat Benatar map summer jaunt
Blondie and Pat Benatar will team up for a short co-headlining excursion this summer that will divide the iconic rockers' time between the East and West Coasts.
The sporadic trek kicks off July 22 in Livermore, CA, before heading east for three shows. The tour will then wrap up in the West, with the final concert currently slated for Sept. 1 in Tucson, AZ. The full itinerary is below.
Blondie, which finished up a run of Pacific Northwest dates in February, is touring in celebration of the 30th anniversary of the group's break-through album, "Parallel Lines." The 1978 release spawned the well-known single "Heart of Glass," which topped both the US and UK charts. The New Wave icons' most recent studio set, "The Curse of Blondie," dropped in 2003.
Pat Benatar also has a 30th anniversary to commemorate: the singer got her career start in 1979 with her debut album "In the Heat of the Night." The record received platinum certification in the US, and its third single, "Heartbreaker," became Benatar's first radio hit, climbing to No. 23 on The Billboard Hot 100.
Last summer, Benatar released "Ultimate Collection," a two-disc set featuring 40 tracks that span the singer's 30-year catalog, including chart-topping hits "Love Is a Battlefield," "We Belong" and "Hit Me With Your Best Shot."
