Looking ahead past July, we see the Summersonic shows coming up in Japan on August 13 and 14 , then a bit of a fuzzy patch later in August, which will turn out to be one of several different international tour plans - announcements coming soon on that! Beyond that there is a major tour in the works for Sept/Oct, but at present I cannot confirm nor reveal anything...
