Godsmack and Staind 2023 Tour Announcement – US Tour Schedule
Hard rock fans everywhere are rejoicing because Godsmack and Staind are touring together in the summer of 2023! The nu-metal heroes will begin on July 18th in St. Louis, MO, making stops in Mansfield, MA, Milwaukee, WI, San Diego, CA, and more before ending on August 31st in Austin, TX.
“Really looking forward to running on tour this summer with our old pals in Staind,” Godsmack said in a statement. “For sure, every night will be packed with great music and a lot of fun memories! Don’t miss it!” “We’re really looking forward to being out with Sully and the guys this summer,” added Staind frontman Aaron Lewis. “The first time we shared the stage with Godsmack was the 1998 Warped Tour, and here we are 25 years later, still going strong. We’re stoked to be sharing the stage with our old friends this summer.”
Let us give you a quick rundown on these two sets of nu-metal masterminds, both of whom have released hard-hitting riffs and grungy, godlike vocal melodies since the mid-1990s. Godsmack began in Massachusetts nearly three decades ago, releasing mega-hits like “I Stand Alone,” “Keep Away,” “Under Your Scars,” and more over eight albums! Speaking of which, they just released their latest record, Lighting Up the Sky, in early 2023, which is said to be their final body of work.
After hearing new ragers like “Surrender,” “You and I,” and “Soul on Fire,” it’s hard for any hard rock fan to imagine a world without Godsmack! But have no fear, as they’ve confirmed that they’re not going anywhere. While this will most likely be the end for new music, more Godsmack tours will be plentiful going forward as they adapt a “greatest hits style” setlist. Of course, plenty of rock groups like Blink 182, My Chemical Romance, and even Guns N’ Roses have hinted at retirement only to come back in full swing. So let’s just say that anything can happen, Godsmack lovers!
As for Staind? They stopped releasing new music a long while ago, with their seventh and most recent self-titled album coming out twelve years ago. But that hasn’t stopped them from delivering some seriously mosh-worthy live music year after year. Frontman Aaron Lewis continues to tour both as a solo artist and with Staind, belting out songs like “It’s Been Awhile,” “Right Here,” “Outside,” and more with the utmost vocal prowess. Things are only getting more intense in the best way when they join forces with Godsmack, and this is a summer rock show you don’t want to miss! Get your tickets now.
