The core trio will be joined by longtime touring guitarist/bassist Daryl Stuermer, with CollinsтАЩ son Nic Collins taking over for his old man on drums; Collins has suffered severe nerve damage to his hands and can no longer play drums. Nic previously backed him up on his 2017 solo comeback tour, when he was just 16 years old.
According to the bandтАЩs website, the North American leg of the tour kicks off on Nov. 15 in Chicago before wrapping in Boston on Dec. 15.
There are just two Canadian stops on the tour: Montreal on Nov. 22 and Toronto on Nov. 25.
