Keeping with the old line about dancing with the one that brought you, “Revolt 2011” will hit several fine House Of Blues establishments during the course of the tour. In addition to the Boston date, look for the tour to play HOBs in New Orleans (April 19), Dallas (April 20), San Diego (April 29), Las Vegas (May 6), Houston (May 10), Chicago (May 14), Myrtle Beach (May 17) and Cleveland (May 24).

For those of you building your own collection of promoters’ quotes, the tour announcement included a few remarks provided by HOB Talent VP Kelly Kapp.

“House Of Blues has had the honor of working with Hollywood Undead on all their sold-out headlining tours since their 2009 breakthrough,” Kapp said. “We’ve developed a great relationship over the past few years and we couldn’t think of a better headliner for the Revolt Tour. Our goal is to grow this into an annual tour that showcases both established and developing artists.”

Some dates are already on sale with more going up this weekend. For more information, check out the websites for Hollywood Undead and House Of Blues.
