    The Used have announced a 25th year anniversary tour.

    Rock icons The Used have announced their nationwide 25th Anniversary Tour creating an unforgetting 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) andLies 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.

    Lead singer Bert McCracken aka robbietheused is “Overwhelmed! These first three records are what put The Used on the map. I can’t wait to experience the joy in playing all three records from front to back. I know it will be an amazing time. I wouldn’t miss it for the world. 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. 
    
    Bassist Jepha shares, “We feel extremely lucky and humbled to have been a part of something way bigger than ourselves for the past 25 years. To everyone that has been there from the beginning or is just starting out your adventure with us thank you. Here’s to the next 25!”

    One of my biggest life regrets is not being able to see them when they were touring that first album. I feel like they’re just a shell of themselves at this point.

    I love this band so much, but this announcement was a total bummer. However, I was stoked for the Honey Revenge tour announcement, was not expecting that one.

    I saw The Used play a headlining show in 2003. They played 8 songs total. Bizarre.

    I saw them when they played their first two albums years back. People should know they only play the album and nothing else. It felt like such a cash grab it made me never want to see the band again.

    Yep I felt the same when I saw those shows. It was fun, but this whole 3 nights, one album each night feels like it's going to be the same. They could play 2 albums in a night and put on a great show. I'll pass on this one.

    These albums are basically my entire experience with The Used, as I kinda fell off around Artwork. I've never seen them live, so it'd be neat to go, but none of these are exactly convenient for me to get to three nights in a row.
