Panic! At the Disco teams up with OK Go, Dresden Dolls
Fresh off a lengthy gig supporting The Academy Is... on that band's recent worldwide tour, Panic! At the Disco is setting off on its own headlining jaunt.
The emo rockers, who call Las Vegas their home, will be joined on tour by several special guests in support mode, with OK Go handling the first half of the itinerary, and Dresden Dolls taking over later on in the outing.
Chicago indie-rockers The Hush Sound , whose second album, "Like Vines," hit stores June 6, will fill the second opening act slot throughout the tour's run.
Intermingled with the Panic's headlining tour will be several appearances at outdoor music festivals, including Friday's 91X Fest in San Diego, an event that also features Franz Ferdinand, The Cult and Dashboard Confessional, among others.
Panic! At the Disco released its debut LP, "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out," last September on Decaydence Records, run by Pete Wentz of fellow emo band Fall Out Boy. The album recently was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America for shipping more than 500,000 copies shipped..
The Dresden Dolls released their second album, "Yes, Virginia," in April. OK Go's sophomore effort, "Oh No," hit stores last September.
