The Used Announce North American Headlining Tour with Story of the Year
The Used have announced that they will be hitting the road this summer for a headlining tour. The band will be supported by Story of the Year and Amira Elfeky, with the tour set to kick off on June 20th in Gary, IN. Dates will wrap up on July 13th in Norfolk, VA.
In a press release announcing the tour, The Used’s vocalist Bert McCracken stated the following:
Stoked to be touring with some of our oldest friends in the industry. We’ve always been huge fans of Big Blue Monkey! Can’t wait to see Amira Elfeky live as well!!!”
Story of the Year vocalist Dan Marsala continued:
“The Used have been big brothers to Story Of The Year for over 20 years. They were the one of first bands to take us on tour after we finished ‘Page Avenue’ and they played a big part in SOTY becoming the band we are today. I’ve always admired how The Used were the fearless leaders of our early 2000s scene and I’m so proud of the friendship that we built so many years ago. The Used and Story Of The Year... that just sounds right!”
Last year, The Used released Toxic Positivity, while Story of the Year released Tear Me To Pieces.
