Les Claypool’s Fearless Flying Frog Brigade will return to the road this fall for a run of tour dates dubbed the Hunt For Green October Tour. The announcement arrives as the band continues to snake across the continent on the massive 41-date Summer of Green Tour, the group’s first outing since the summer of 2003.
The tour will kick off on Wednesday, October 11th at the Fox Theater in Oakland, CA, heading east with stops at Denver’s Mission Ballroom, St. Louis’ The Factory, Chicago’s Salt Shed, and more before culminating with a special Halloween show at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN on Tuesday, October 31st. Additional performances may be added in the coming weeks.
Seattle saxophonist Skerik, who has been sitting out the summer tour dates due to a freak shoulder injury, previously expressed hope that he would recover in time for the band’s fall tour dates. However, so far, no indication has been given that he will be able to participate in the newly announced run of shows.
A limited artist pre-sale will run from tomorrow, Wednesday, June 14th at 10 a.m. local time until Thursday, June 15th at 10 p.m. local time, using the code WHAMOLA. Tickets will go on sale to the general public on Friday, June 17th at 10 a.m. local time. Click below for a full list of tour dates, and for show and ticket/VIP information head here.
