DROPKICK MURPHYS vocalist and founder Ken Casey said: “We are so fired up to spend the summer with these legends. We plan to give people a great night out when we hit their town. Gonna be a blast!!” Tim Brennan from DROPKICK MURPHYS said: “Being able to tour with BAD RELIGION is such an exciting thing for us. It’s not every day we get to rub elbows with a band that has that kind of legendary status and we are over the moon to hit the road with them.”
BAD RELIGION singer Greg Graffin said: “Bringing together our two bands and our respective audiences should create an event of epic proportions. But most importantly, I look forward to the community of camaraderie and togetherness we will share with such talented fellow musicians and punk fans across the nation. I can’t wait!” BAD RELIGION bassist Jay Bentley added: “You know, this has been a long time coming. We’ve shared the stage at plenty of festivals with Kenny and the guys, and I am genuinely excited to hit the road with the DROPKICKS, finally. Their energy is infectious, and I’m looking forward to spending the summer with them. I think it’s going to be a blast for us and our fans.”
