Gob And Sum 41 To Tour U.S.

Lock up your cats and leave all flammables in the basement, because not only is Gob coming to a town near you, but they're bringing Sum 41 along part of the way.

If touring non-stop and basically living in a stinky tour van is punk, well, these guys are as punk as it gets. Just when you think Gob have entertained you in your own backyard enough times for a lifetime, your doorbell's ringing again.

What's worse, images of Sum 41 going through a "punk" seminar with Gob as teachers are nightmares we shouldn't have to think of. Sum 41 grace the pages of this month's AP magazine, explaining how they survive with only four or five t-shirts while they're on tour. The question is, are there enough fireworks, leopard g-strings, metal hair wigs and cans of beer (for those of age, of course) to support this tour? We will just have to wait and find out.

Just announced are the U.S. dates with Sum 41... get out your calendars...
