There are hiatuses and then there’s Porno For Pyros‘ hiatus. After not touring for 25 years, they’ve decided to fire up a North American tour, some 30 years after the release of their self-titled album!

The 21-city tour (produced by Live Nation) starts October 8 at Hard Rock Live Sacramento in Wheatland, California, makes stops across North America in Las Vegas, Nevada; Chicago, Illinois; Boston, Massachusetts; Atlanta, Georgia; Nashville, Tennessee and more before wrapping up in Austin, Texas at Stubb’s Waller Creek Amphitheater on November 20.

Last year you saw the band reunite (Perry Farrell, Stephen Perkins, Peter DiStefano and Martyn LeNoble) for a sold-out show at the Belasco in Los Angeles. Since then, they’ve played a handful of shows; Welcome To Rockville, the Chicago Metro & Lollapalooza.

Word is they’re also working on new music to release later this year!

Tickets are available now (presale), with general on-sale starting tomorrow, Friday, July 14 at 10 a.m. local time at LiveNation.com.

* Not a Live Nation date

Rumours of a Porno For Pyros reunion has been building for years; it was thought that they’d get together for singer Perry Farrell’s Las Vegas show “Kind Heaven” in 2019 before it got scrapped due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

If this tour isn’t coming to your city, will you make a road trip to see one of the dates?
