Social Distortion announce European and UK tour dates for August and September. The tour marks the band's first ever shows in Ireland and Scotland, as well as their very first appearance at the Reading & Leeds Festivals.
Mike Ness, Social Distortion's fromt man says: "I know I keep saying what a priority the UK and Europe is to us, but I hope now everyone is taking our word seriously. We have such patient and loyal fans and we appreciate them carrying the Social Distortion flame in our absence. We feel it's important for us to give back as much as we can of ourselves and we are proud knowing that we're at least making an effort to fill a void of our early years. We also couldn't be more excited about tour stops in new places like Scotland, Ireland and playing the Reading and Leeds Festivals for the first time. It's crazy for ourselves to think that in our 33 years that there are still new cities and experiences for us out there. We're really looking forward to seeing everyone as well introducing ourselves to Social Distortion fans who just don't know it yet."
