Weezer reveal The Gathering North American arena tour

Weezer have just announced a big North American headline tour, intriguingly entitled The Gathering.

Joined by The Shins and Silversun Pickups, the band will hit the road between September 8 (kicking things off at Sacramento’s Golden 1 Center) and October 24 (wrapping up at the Crypto.com Arena in LA), stopping off at 30 more arenas in between. Tickets go on general sale from Friday, April 3 at 10am.

Before then, though, there’s even more Weezer goodness on the way! They’ll be dropping new single Shine Again on April 1 (and it’s very much not an April Fool’s, they stress) from their next studio album. They also add – in all-caps, so they must really mean it – that, “THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING. THE GATHERING HAS A WAY OF TRAVELING.”

Check out the tour trailer below, featuring a snippet of Shine Again:
