After an eight-year hiatus, hardcore punks Circle Jerks announced late last year that they’d be reuniting to celebrate the 40th anniversary of their Group Sex debut. Today, they’ve finally unveiled their full reunion tour dates. What’s more, they’ve tapped Adolescents and Negative Approach to open select dates on the North American trek, so be prepared to relive your punk rock glory days from doors on through to the encore.
Circle Jerks’ Keith Morris, Greg Hetson, and Zander Schloss announced the news with an Instagram post laying out their schedule. Fans in North America can catch them live in concert starting on May 6th in Vancouver. From there, they will perform in cities like Seattle, Portland, Las Vegas, Austin, Houston, Denver, and Salt Lake City before ending the tour on June 28th in Boise, Idaho.
Tickets go on sale this Friday, January 31st via the band’s website. Grab tickets to all of their upcoming concerts, including festival appearances at Punk Rock Bowling and Burger Boogaloo, here.
