Blondie announces U.S. tour with X, will give away 5 new songs with each ticket
Blondie will tour the U.S. this September and October with special guest X in tow, an 18-date trek dubbed the “No Principals Tour” that will include, with the purchase of each ticket, downloads of five exclusive new songs off Debbie Harry and Co.’s forthcoming 10th studio album, which is expected to be released later this year.
The tour opens Sept. 5 in Hampton Beach, NH, and runs through Oct. 4 in New York City (see full dates below); all tickets go on sale this Friday, except for the bands’ appearances at Riot Fest in Chicago, which already is on sale; the Dallas concert, which is free with admission to the Texas State Fair; and the Nashville concert, which goes on sale July 12.
Fans who buy tickets to see Blondie – featuring original members Harry, Clem Burke and Chris Stein, plus newer members Leigh Foxx, Tommy Kessler and Matt Katz-Bohen – will be able to download the new songs “Make A Way,” “Drag You Around,” “Can’t Stop Wanting,” “A Rose By Any Name” and “I Screwed Up” off the as-yet-untitled follow-up to 2011′s Panic of Girls.
