The All-American Rejects have announced their highly anticipated return to the stage with the “Wet Hot All-American Summer Tour,” their first headlining tour in nearly a decade.
Produced by Live Nation, the 27-city tour kicks off on August 11 at the MIDFLORIDA Credit Union Amphitheatre in Tampa, Florida. Making stops across the U.S., the tour will wrap up at the Zoo Amphitheatre in Oklahoma City on October 14.
Speaking about their upcoming dates, the band said, “We’ve been trying to get out on the road in a proper way for the last few years. We finally realized after playing When We Were Young that the world was ready to pull out of their ‘guilty pleasure chest’ and celebrate the soundtrack of their youth. When New Found Glory, The Starting Line, Motion City Soundtrack and The Get Up Kids signed on, the feeling was ‘This is a celebration of summers gone by.’ It’s time to embrace the cumulative joy of growing up.”
“First we got you to ‘Swing Swing,’ then we became your ‘Dirty Little Secret,’ and you thought ‘It Would End Tonight’ so we could ‘Move Along,’ then we ‘Gave You Hell’ for denying the fact that we’re the band you listened to your entire lives, whether you liked it or not,” they added.
The general on-sale will start Friday at 10 AM Local Time on LiveNation.com.
