This summer alt-rockers The Offspring and 311 will be joining forces as co-headliners for the 2010 Unity Tour. The trek will be featuring Pepper as a special guest as well. The outing will kick off in Chicago on June 29. So far 18 cities are scheduled to be visited through the end of July.

The alt-rock group 311 have mapped out a late winter trek covering the West Coast. The band continues to support “Uplifter,” their latest album released last summer. Their latest set of shows will be kicking off in Santa Cruz on February 23, followed by two additional stops in California. The outing of 11 cities will include opening support from The Wailers for five of their shows and wrap up things with a “311 Day” special concert at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas on March 11.

According to a recent press release, “311 Day,” a special concert event that is held on March 11 every other year by the band 311, next year will move from New Orleans to Las Vegas and take place at Mandalay Bay Events Center. Typically during the show, billed as a 311 concert ultimate experience, the band plays an extended set list of five hours and features their hits as well as rare tunes, classics and covers. A special effects show and state of the art lighting is part of the event.

Late this year, 311, the alt-rock band, will be heading for the road and perform a string of headlining dates to support “Uplifter,” their most recent album. The band will be kicking the trek off in Temecula, CA on November 11 and visit 19 cities, wrapping things up in Austin, TX on December 8.

The direction from Bob Rock (Motley Crue, Metallica) is evident from the tune’s “Hey You” crunchy opening riffs. However like lots of songs from 311 they don’t stay put too long. With the arrival of the verse, the guitars bring in an offbeat, cleaner reggae feeling. The dynamic shift makes the whole sound louder

The alt rock band 311 has announced 2009 dates for their annual Unity Tour. Support from Ziggy Marley, special guest, will also be featured. The Unity Tour will visit 25 cities, kicking off in Santa Barbara, CA on June 5 and run through August, wrapping up back on the coast of California with shows in San Diego on August 11 and in Irvine, CA on August 12.

This summer 311, the reggae rockers, and Snoop Dogg, rap star, will be joining forces on the road for Unity Tour 2008. On June 24 the outing will kick off in Phoenix then travel from West to East Coast, wrapping up in Austin, TX on August 2-3 with a finale of two nights. Fiction Plane, special guest, will be opening the shows, which primarily will take place in amphitheaters.

311, the reggae-rock band, have a short tour of the US booked to lead up to “311 Day,” their largest annual event that is held in New Orleans. During the US tour, the band is expecting to play around 10 shows. The outing will kick off in Las Vegas on February 22. Concerts so far have been confirmed for Tallahassee, Fl; Cypress, Fl; Richmond, VA; and Tulsa, OK. The outing will wrap up with 311 Day on March 11 in New Orleans Arena.

The reggae rock band 311 is finalizing this year’s Summer Unity Tour. This summer it will visit almost 50 cities in the US, coast to coast. The outing will be featuring Matisyahu, the American Jewish reggae musician, on most of the dates. The trek will kick off in Tucson AZ on June 21.
