The outing is scheduled to launch Sept. 8 in the Atlanta area, and dates and venues also have been announced for the tour's initial stops in two Florida cities and three Texas locales. Ticket on-sale information wasn't available at press time.

As previously reported, shows in San Diego; Phoenix; Denver; Minneapolis; Chicago; Champaign, IL; Grand Rapids, MI; Detroit; Cleveland; Columbus, OH; Baltimore; Worcester, MA; New York; Philadelphia; Fresno, CA; Seattle and Portland, OR are also planned, but details about those dates haven't been confirmed.

Foo Fighters released their fifth album, the two-disc set "In Your Honor," in June. Disc One features hard-edged rockers, while Disc Two largely houses acoustic tracks.

Weezer is backing its new LP "Make Believe," which hit stores in May and debuted at No. 2 on The Billboard 200 album chart.

Prior to the tour with Weezer, Foo Fighters are set to play an August run of Canadian shows.

Weezer, meanwhile, wraps up a three-week North American tour Saturday (7/23) at Lollapalooza in Chicago.
