Fans were in for a massive surprise today when Pinhead Gunpowder announced their first-ever US/Canada tour. The run marks the first time in over 16 years that the band has performed live, and their first time playing outside of California since 1994. Their last performance took place on February 12, 2010, at 924 Gilman St in Berkeley, CA.

The band - which features Billie Joe Armstrong, Jason White, Bill Schneider, and Aaron Cometbus - released their latest studio album, Unt, in 2024, marking their first original material since 2008's West Side Highway EP.

Dubbed the "Bum Rush" tour, the band will hit 11 dates across the US along with one stop in Canada, with tickets going on sale tomorrow (May 21). Check out the full list of dates below. If you want tickets, you're going to need to act fast - these are all small, intimate venues that will sell out in seconds.
