This morning, GreenDay.com was updated with one interesting piece of information. Now, there was something there when you clicked on the "Tour" link on the navigation bar. That something? A list of dates for a two-month North American Summer Tour.
Starting in Seattle on July 3rd and wrapping up in Los Angeles on August 25th, Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and Tre Cool will be running a lap around the United States in promotion of their highly anticipated upcoming LP, 21st Century Breakdown.
The Philadelphia show is currently scheduled for July 21st, with other stops in Pittsburgh, Baltimore and New York City all around the same time. No venue or support band is listed but there are some tantalizing rumors swirling around, none of which are allowed to be talked about at this time.
California's finest recently released the first single from the album, "Know Your Enemy," on iTunes and to radio stations. The song is unfortunately a little lackluster, hopefully not indicative of the whole record.
Green Day last released a record almost a half of a decade ago. That record was the unstoppable American Idiot.
21st Century Breakdown is scheduled to be released May 15th.
