Yellowcard To Hit The Road Right After VMAs
Even if they win all three of the MTV Video Music Awards for which they're nominated, Yellowcard won't be able to stick around Miami for too long to celebrate. Two days later, the Florida quintet is expected back on the road.
Fresh from spending the summer on the Vans Warped Tour, Yellowcard have lined up a six-week fall tour that kicks off October 13. Prior to that, the band will join Warped tourmates and fellow VMA nominees New Found Glory for a handful of European shows next week. And then there are some brief stops in Australia and Japan before the group returns Stateside for its latest round of dates, which encompass more than two dozen North American cities before drawing to a close in late November.
The new tour comes on the heels of "Only One," the third single off Yellowcard's second album, Ocean Avenue, which has just surpassed the 1-million-copies-sold mark, according to SoundScan. "Only One," whose video features actress Rachel Miner ("Bully"), follows previous singles "Way Away" and "Ocean Avenue."
A DVD featuring behind-the-scenes footage, a photo gallery and a full concert captured from Philadelphia (the last show of the band's spring tour) is expected to drop in November.
Yellowcard and their clip for "Ocean Avenue" are up for the Viewer's Choice Award, Best New Artist in a Video and the MTV2 Award at the 2004 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday in Miami. (Check out a complete list of nominees). They will also perform.
