Get Up Kids to tour with Hot Rod Circuit in May

The Get Up Kids have begun announcing dates of their first proper headlining tour in well over a year. They'll be bringing with them labelmates Hot Rod Circuit, and other openers TBA. So far only west coast/western dates have been announced thus far, but be assured that more are to come. The announced dates are listed below. If you want to catch the band doing a few "warm up" shows along the east coast in April, those dates are also below. Also, no one still seems to be sure when the new album is going to come out, as now we're running a banner from Vagrant that states that the album drops on 5/19, which is most indeed a Sunday. My best guess for the actual release date would either be 5/14 or 5/21. Vagrant needs to get some new calendars...
