Blink & Cypress
The worlds of rock-flavored stoner rap and newly mature brat-punk will converge April 29, when the two acts descend on Nampa’s Idaho Center. From there, they’ll hit amphitheatres in and around the Midwest through May 16, when the jaunt wraps in Bonner Springs, Kan.
The stretch comes sandwiched between Blink’s Japanese tour and a summer co-headlining run with No Doubt. The Mark, Tom and Travis show is currently gearing up to hit Australia for eight shows in March.
Cypress Hill will be hyping their seventh full-length album, Till Death Do Us Part, set for a March 23 release. The disc is their first since 2001’s Stoned Raiders, which saw them continuing in the rap-rock vein they had embraced with their previous double album, Skull & Bones.
The group headlined several sold-out shows in the latter half of 2003, in addition to their stint on Eminem’s summer “Anger Management” tour.
