News in Punk

Prepare to have a kick ass summer, because Goldfinger and Less Than Jake are going on tour together.
The tour will kick off in June, so mark your calenders:
6/23 – Rams Head Live! – Baltimore, MD
6/27 – Lupo’s Heartbreak Hotel – Providence, RI
6/28 – Electric Factory – Philadelphia, PA
7/01 – Royal Oak – Royal Oak, Michigan

The LTJ/Goldfinger tour promises to be pretty interesting, I think. Also, stay tuned for April 22nd when Goldfinger will be releasing their forthcoming album, “Hello Destiny.”
Stay TRUE!
