The tour will kick off at the Spokane Arena in Washington on July 12. From there, the bands will stop in the Canadian cities of Edmonton and Vancouver. They will then spend the rest of July focusing on the West Coast. In August, the tour will make stops in Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In September, they will visit Connecticut, Virginia, Ontario, Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois, Ohio, Indiana, Missouri and Texas. The tour will then close with a show in Dallas, Texas, on October 1.

“No matter what I will ever do, nothing feels like home as much as playing these songs with these guys and it never will,” said Matchbox Twenty lead singer-songwriter Rob Thomas. “And I can’t wait to spend another summer out there on the road with the Crows.”

“To be honest, we took a vote after last year and decided to spend every summer with Rob from now on,” chimed Counting Crows’ frontman Adam Duritz. “Can. Not. Wait.”

The two rock bands have proved to have electric on-stage chemistry before, and this year should be no different. This year marks the 20th anniversary of Matchbox Twenty’s debut album Yourself or Someone Like You, certified 12 times platinum. The Counting Crows debuted in 1993 with August and Everything After.  Both bands were at the peak of their popularity back in the ’90s.

Matchbox Twenty last released an album in 2012, titled North, while Counting Crows last released Somewhere under Wonderland in 2014.
