Following the likes of Taking Back Sunday, New Found Glory and Every Time I Die who just celebrated the big 2-0, today, longtime post-hardcore act Silverstein has just announced they’ll be celebrating two decades as a band with a massive North American tour.
Kicking off February 28th in London, Ontario near the band’s hometown of Burlington, Silverstein will be embarking on a huge 33-date trek where they will be playing their longest set as a band including 2005′s Discovering The Waterfront in full, a greatest hits set and an intimate acoustic set.
Talking about the upcoming run which will also feature Four Year Strong and I The Mighty, frontman Shane Told said, “It feels absolutely incredible to be celebrating 20 years as a band! It feels like just yesterday we were starting this thing in Josh’s basement - singing out of Shel Silverstein books and National Geographic magazines - and here we are embarking on our biggest tour ever. Playing three sets is definitely a huge undertaking, but you only turn 20 once. I’m excited to give our fans the longest show of our career - pulling out all the stops.”
Told went on to add, “It’s been an amazing 20 years and this epic show is our way of saying thank you to all of our fans who jam out to us - whether they have been there since the first EP or just discovered us last month. We have the best fans in the world. Their endless support has been the reason we have been able to do this constantly for the last 20 years - to give back with this tour is the least we can do.”
