The Used have announced their nationwide 25th Anniversary Tour creating an unforgettable experience for fans with 3 nights in each city, featuring a full album play through of the music they created that shaped the sound of early 2000s alternative rock. The celebration will highlight their first three albums performed in full: their self-titled record The Used (2002), In Love And Death (2004) and Lies For The Liars (2007). 

As the band reaches a quarter-century milestone, these records are largely regarded as highly influential and it is no wonder each of them have been certified either platinum or gold by the RIAA and selling over 10 million albums combined worldwide.

The tour will be kicking off on April 3 in Detroit, MI, making stops throughout the United States in cities like Boston, Chicago, New York, NJ, Salt Lake City, Denver and Los Angeles before wrapping up on May 17 in San Diego. Locally, they will have shows at Starland Ballrooom in Sayreville from April 15-18 and Irving Plaza in New York from April 19-22.

Ticket pre-sale details are as follows: Artist/LN/Ticketmaster Presale: Wednesday, 12/11 at 10:00am Local; Spotify/Local Presale: Thursday, 12/12 at 10:00am Local; General On Sale: Friday, 12/13 at 10:00am Local

The Used will also be offering VIP packages on the tour.

Sending love to you all and I hope to see you there!”

The band is eternally grateful for the love and support of their fans throughout the years.
