Creed takes a short break from the road in late October, but returns to the tour trail in early November for a new round of dates.
The new tour stops are set in the South and Midwest, and follow the group’s current October run through the West.
The group continues to auction off general-admission pit tickets for most stops on the tour; auction proceeds benefit Stapp’s With Arms Wide Open Foundation.
Creed’s October dates feature support from Sevendust, 12 Stones and Cinder. Sevendust drops off the bill in November. Full details are posted in the tour section at Creed’s official website.
On October 22, Creed releases a limited-edition CD-single for its latest single, “Don’t Stop Dancing.” The disc will feature acoustic versions of “Don’t Stop Dancing” and “With Arms Wide Open,” as well as the “Don’t Stop Dancing” music video, multimedia highlights of the band’s new fan club magazine--titled “CreedINK"--and a free Creed poster, according to the group’s website.
“Weathered," Creed’s chart-topping third album, was released in November and sold about 887,000 copies during its first week out. The album spent its first eight weeks of release in the No. 1 slot on the Billboard 200 album chart, and in January was certified multi-platinum for shipping 5 million copies in the U.S.
