The Offspring have announced that they will be launching their North American Let the Bad Times Roll Tour this spring, featuring special guests Radkey for most dates. The 18-city trek is set to launch on April 26th in San Diego, CA at the Cal Coast Credit Union Open Air Theatre and will wrap up on May 22nd in Milwaukee, WI.

Radkey will support on the tour from the kick off until May 17th in New York City, NY at Pier 17. Blame My Youth will take over for the shows in Detroit and Chicago.

The Offspring’s tour is in support of their latest album, “Let the Bad Times Roll.” Frontman Dexter Holland had this to say: “This album is probably the most cathartic thing we’ve done. The messages might be dark, but at the end what’s left is that communication is important, working through feelings is important and most of all, hope is important.”

Tickets for the tour are set to go on sale to the general public this Friday, March 4th at 10AM local time on LiveNation.com.
