Yellowcard stacks the deck with more headlining dates

With the Warped Tour now fading in the rearview mirror, Yellowcard sets its sights on a fall headlining run that continues to grow.

The group, which recently announced plans to launch the run in early October, has added a dozen dates to an itinerary that now stretches into late November. Tickets for many of the shows are on sale now, while those for several others are due to hit the box office on Saturday (8/28). Details are shown below.

Yellowcard has tapped fellow Warped Tour alumnus The Starting Line to open the upcoming shows, with the exception of the Oct. 13 stop in Fresno, CA, which will feature Taking Back Sunday.

Last July, Yellowcard issued its sophomore set, "Ocean Avenue." The music video for the album's title track is in contention for a Viewer's Choice Award at this Sunday's (8/29) MTV Video Music Awards. The group is soliciting votes via a mock campaign website whose design resembles that of sites normally used by campaigning politicians.

The site's features include a streaming version of the "Ocean Avenue" music video.

Meanwhile, streaming samples of all of the album's tracks are posted at the band's website.

In addition to vocalist/guitarist Ryan Key, guitarist Ben Harper, drummer Longineu Parsons and bassist Pete Mosely, Yellowcard's lineup also includes a classically trained violinist, Sean Mackin.

Pennsylvania-based outfit The Starting Line released its debut full-length, "Say It Like You Mean It," in 2002. The group is currently working on a follow-up, according to its website.
