The joint tour kicks off in Saint Paul, Minn., Sept. 17 and consists of three shows in the Midwest, one in New York, three in Texas and a closer Oct. 5 in Phoenix.

The shows are mostly clubs and theaters so fans should be able to get nice and close to the action.

Sep. 17 – Saint Paul, Minn., Myth

Sep. 18 – Milwaukee, Wisc., Eagles Ballroom

Sep. 19 – Indianapolis, INFarm Bureau Insurance Lawn At White River State Park

Sep. 20 – Niagara Falls, N.Y., Rapids Theatre

Sep. 30 – Irving, Texas, Pavilion At The Irving Music Factory
