The Linkin Park summer tour with Incubus, what we're dubbing as the "Linkubus Tour", was announced this morning. The real tour name, however, is the HONDA CIVIC TOUR. This is the band's first time playing US amphitheatres since 2008, and the first time they've played them since 2001 on a tour that isn't Projekt Revolution. The Linkubus dates actually encompass amphitheatres (12), arenas (4) and festivals (2) in the same tour - a first for the band in North America.
Kicking off in Bristow, VA on August 11th, the 18 shows run for a total of 31 days across North America, including three shows in western Canada - a place the band has not visited since the Meteora World Tour when it hit Vancouver in February 2004 over 8 years ago. The tour ends on September 10 in Chula Vista, CA. The tour does not hit the band's hometown of Los Angeles, CA or a big city they've played every US tour - New York City, but there are two pretty noticeable gaps in the tour between the Mansfield, MA / Camden, NJ shows and the Mountain View, CA and Chula Vista, CA dates. Maybe something will get added! The two festivals are also in Canada - X-FEST in Calgary and SONiC BOOM in Edmonton. After LP canceled three shows last year in the US (Washington D.C., Uncasville, and Cincinnati), fans will be happy to know that all three cities are being revisited on this tour (Bristow for the DC show, Uncasville with the same venue, and Cincinnati with the amphitheatre). Venue-wise, this is the first time the band has not played the Lakewood Amphitheatre in Atlanta (in the summer)...moving to Alpharetta's Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre (which Incubus headlined last year) instead. Also instead of the usual Clarkston,MI DTE Music Center, the tour hits Auburn Hills, MI's Palace instead. One venue will get their SIXTH Linkin Park show - Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View, CA (2001, 2004, 2007, 2008, 2011, & 2012). Also, Incubus will not be playing the first two shows of this tour.  08/11 Bristow, VA, Jiffy Lube Live (2011 make-up) (no Incubus) 08/12 Uncasville, CT, Mohegan Sun Arena (2011 make-up) (no Incubus) 08/14 Mansfield, MA, Comcast Center 08/17 Camden, NJ, Susquehanna Bank Center 08/19 Alpharetta, GA, Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre 08/21 Auburn Hills, MI, The Palace at Auburn Hills 08/22 Cincinnati, OH, Riverbend Music Center (2011 make-up) 08/24 Tinley Park, IL, First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre 08/25 Noblesville, IN, Klipsch Music Center 08/27 Dallas, TX, Gexa Energy Pavilion 08/28 Woodlands, TX, Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion 08/30 Englewood, CO, Comfort Dental Amphitheatre 09/01 Calgary, AB, Fort Calgary - X-FEST 09/02 Edmonton, AB, Edmonton EXPO Center - SONiC BOOM 09/04 Vancouver, BC, Rogers Arena (not a Honda Civic Tour show, but Incubus and MUTEMATH will be playing) 09/05 Tacoma, WA, Tacoma Dome 09/07 Mountain View, CA, Shoreline Amphitheatre 09/10 Chula Vista, CA, Cricket Wireless Amphitheatre Ticket information here. Full 2012 tour dates via LPL here. Thoughts? Who's going to a show or multiple shows? EDIT: Two festivals were added in Canada! EDIT 2: The Honda press release confirms MUTEMATH will be opening the tour. -------------------- QUOTE Victim of the 2011 Atlanta plot twist!

Wow, when's the last time they did a tour like this that they weren't the creators of?
No Florida date? Bastards. I can't even hit up the Georgia date either, because band camp starts that day. Guess I'll have to wait for the solo tour. --------------------  QUOTE (LGraham @ Apr 16 2012, 06:39 AM)  bitching © SOMEDUDE REMIX The Complete Rosewood Fall | Tumblr | Yelling About Music | Steam | This Is My Jam |

Honda Civic Tour? Did they ever tour sponsor? Do you know? Or is it now a "global crisis" or higher power (Warner)?

First time in a long time they are on another tour and first time they headline another tour I guess.
Announcement says "upcoming European headline tour". -------------------- QUOTE Victim of the 2011 Atlanta plot twist!

Any idea who the opening act for this is? Ticketmaster has Mutemath for one of the dates on there but last year they had a rotating opener for Blink and MCR. Tour also seems kind of short, wonder if more dates are added.

Wow, I didn't expect them to do some more make-up shows, that's pretty cool. Well, looks like a cool tour, I won't attend a show though
