The tour kicks off on November 25 in Phoenix, AZ at the Crescent Ballroom, and for any fan, it’s sure to be a dream come true.

“Well, this should be the most epic series of shows we've ever put on in terms of the ‘legacy’ of our early work,” Max Bemis says. “I predict all-out catharsis in these intimate settings and an awesome experience losing myself in the narrative of each of these albums played in their entirety.”

General tickets go on sale this Friday, August 25 at noon local time. Fan Club presale will start Tuesday, August 22 at noon local time here.

Special guests will be announced soon. 

Plus, the band will be playing Riot Fest on Sept. 17. See the full, daily schedule here, and check out their In Defense Of The Genre tour dates below!
