Rancid, Dropkick Murphys Announce Co-Headlining Tour

Dropkick Murphys and Rancid have announced news dates for their highly anticipated Boston to Berkeley II co-headlining tour.

The tour, which was scheduled to commence in May 2020 but got canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, is now scheduled to kick off on August 10 with a show at the Lege Amphitheater in Waite Park, Minnesota.

The final show of the 34-date trek is set to take place at The Shrine in Los Angeles on October 16.

Both bands will play Riot Fest in Chicago and Aftershock in Sacramento, California. They will be joined by The Bronx on most of the dates during the upcoming tour.

“Can’t wait to get back out there and kick the touring door open again,” Dropkick Murphys’ vocalist Ken Casey said in a press release.
“This is a great lineup and we are gonna take the country by storm.”

Rancid frontman Tim Armstrong added, “Looking forward to hitting the road with the Dropkick Murphys again for the second edition of our Boston to Berkeley Tour. Our good buddies The Bronx will be joining us on tour as well. See ya in the pit!”

Dropkick Murphys and Rancid went on their inaugural Boston to Berkeley Tour in 2017.
