The tour was announced on 7 November 2023, with the marathon sets at Forest Hills Stadium, Huntington Bank Pavilion, The Gorge Amphitheatre and Germania Insurance Amphitheater being announced in advance in September of that year.[1]

History

The tour encompasses a vast array of venues, some being large arenas such as the Kia Forum and the Pacific Coliseum. Frontman Stu Mackenzie has said about the band's increase in popularity:

From where I’m sitting, honestly, it all feels very abstract. It’s insanely flattering and humbling and just freaky, but it sometimes feels like it’s happening to someone else and I’m just acting this part. Really, I’m extremely grateful, because we get energy from the whole thing. It’s like a beautiful spiral of positivity. As long as people are willing to come watch us play, I’m pretty sure we’re going to just keep playing.[2]

Reception

Pitchfork put the tour on their list of the "The 44 Most Anticipated Tours of 2024".[3]
