Long-running acts Social Distortion and Bad Religion (you may have heard of them) will be embarking on a massive month+ tour this coming April. Launching in Bakersfield, the 5-week tour will see them zip across the country (regretfully avoiding the Rocky Mountain and plains states) before finishing up in Indiana. Social D will be playing a 40th anniversary set of Mommy's Little Monster, and The Lovebombs will be along for support.
Also announced are the make-up dates for Social Distortion's postponed tour with the The Bellrays, which will launch this coming September. See the tour poster for the co-headlining tour below, and find all of those dates underneath. Tickets will go on sale this Friday, 15 Dec 2023, but there are resales available right now at this link, using codes BALLANDCHAIN or SUFFER.
