ROCKBAND LIVE Tour This Fall with Panic at the Disco and Dashboard Confessional

The first ever ROCKBAND LIVE tour went on sale today. The tour kicks off on October 5th, 2008 in San Diego to coincide with the release of RockBand 2. Panic at the Disco and Dashboard Confessional will be headlining the tour, along with Plain White T’s, The Cab, and RockBand contest winners from across the country. Both Dashboard Confessional and Plain White T’s have upcoming albums set to be released this fall, while Panic at the Disco and the Cab are supporting their spring album releases.
