If you thought that nostalgia tours were confined to the summer amphitheater circuit, think again. Starting in October, three artists from the '80s college radio scene -- the Mission UK, Gene Loves Gezebel and former Alarm leader Mike Peters -- will be hitting clubs across the country for what's being dubbed "The Resurrection Tour."

The tour will coincide with the release of the Mission UK's upcoming album, "Resurrection: The Greatest Hits"; however, fans should be warned that the album does not include the original versions of "Deliverance," "Wasteland," "Butterfly On A Wheel," or any of their other Mission UK faves. Mission frontman Wayne Hussey "updated" (read: re-recorded) the band's most popular songs for the album.

The Mission UK aren't the only act on the tour plugging new product: Gene Loves Gezebel will be supporting their recently released "VII," while Mike Peters will be performing songs from his most recent solo album, "Rise"; Peters also plans to perform songs from the Alarm's catalog. (A further note for '80s college rock fans: Billy Duffy of the Cult plays guitar and co-wrote many of the songs on "Rise.")
