Bowling For Soup back for another round

Bowling For Soup have confirmed a UK tour for February next year.

It’s called The How About Another Round Tour – and the name reflects how the band feel.

Frontman Jaret Reddick says: “On the Farewell Tour, we made it clear that ‘farewell’ wasn’t goodbye. We’d over-extended ourselves for two decades and we needed a break.

“I don’t ever expect BFS to go away, but we had to make some changes to our touring schedule if things were going to move forward in a productive and positive manner.”

He adds: “It really has been good being able to catch our breath. I feel like our shows are even better than they were a few years back.”

The band released an album of re-recorded popular tracks earlier this year.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
