The 24-date run will begin on May 25th at Atlantic City, NJ’s Borgata Spa & Resort Event Center and make its way through much of the East Coast and the Midwest before wrapping up in Welch, Minnesota, on June 29th.
The two acts commented on the tour partnership in statements accompanying the announcement. As Fogerty mentions, “ZZ Top is one of my favorite bands, and Billy Gibbons is one of my all-time favorite guitarists. Riffs, blues, and bayous…bucket list!!” As Gibbons said of Fogerty, “John Fogerty along with ZZ Top have been followers of blues and rock since the beginning, and we’re looking forward to rippin’ it up together this spring. We’ve got a great show lined up for ya’!”
