It's been a big 15 years for The Used, and to celebrate the hardcore rockers are launching a celebratory 2016 tour and live CD/DVD, Live and Acoustic at The Palace.
For its 2016 tour, The Used will be playing two shows per night in every city, playing their landmark debut and sophomore albums The Used and In Love and Death in their entirety as well as another selection of fan favorites. The fan-pleasing tour will kick off with back-to-back shows on April 5 and 6 in Seattle before crossing the country and ending on May 27 and 28 in Los Angeles. Between the West Coast dates, The Used will also hit up New York City, Boston, Chicago and Las Vegas, as well as plenty of other U.S. cities.

In addition to the tour dates, The Used have a new album arriving in 2016, and it's no April Fool's Day joke. According to a press release, Live and Acoustic at The Palace will be released on April 1, 2016. The new record will feature an acoustic The Used concert from October, where the band's hits were rearranged with a variety of strings for a whole new experience.
"I think we really captured the night perfectly and listening back to the mixes it reminded me how music can allow us to be children once again and once you open yourself up to that emotion it's like a virus, it's contagious," The Used frontman Bert McCracken said in a statement. "Nearly every eye in the venue was weepy the night we played with the orchestra because these songs are so emotional and this recording is a truly special thing that I can't wait for everyone to hear. It still gives me goose bumps."
