Green Day announces tour dates for North America and Europe
Green Day is all set to tour with Revolution Radio.
The seemingly ageless pop punk band announced North American and European tour dates for their 12th studio album on Tuesday. The tour actually kicks off on Sept. 20, a couple weeks before Revolution Radio officially arrives on Oct. 7.
There are 12 shows planned across September and October. The first chunk covers the midwest -- St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit and Columbus, plus Toronto -- before the band heads to the northeast for shows in Philadelphia, New York, Boston, Washington, D.C., and Sayreville, New Jersey.

The U.S. leg of the tour concludes in California, with shows in Los Angeles (Oct. 17) and Berkeley (Oct. 20).
The band will then take the rest of 2016 off before heading to Western Europe for a longer stretch of shows through January and February 2017. The band also confirmed a pair of summer 2017 engagements at Germany's Hurricane Festival and Southside Festival, on June 23 and 24, respectively.
Revolution Radio is Green Day's first album since 2012, when the band released the trilogy of ¡Uno!, ¡Dos! and ¡Tré!. The new album is meant to be a return to the band's roots after the 2012 trilogy explored some different directions.
You can listen to the first single off of Revolution Radio, "Bang Bang," in the video up top. Here's the full list of tour dates, straight from the band's official website:
