The Get Up Kids are hitting their beloved Midwest on tour one last time before closing out the year. Select dates onsale right now (plus a very short bonus run of East Coast shows in late December). The band will be joined by some good'uns Remember Sports, Retirement Party, and Active Bird Community on their upcoming dates.

Get a taste of what's in store with The Get Up Kids' recent Vans Sidestripe Session. ICYDN (in case you don't know) these are two-song performances in a giant Vans shoe box with a rotating backdrop of art installations. It's pretty pretty pretty sick. Tracks for this set include “Maybe” & “Better This Way,” taken from their latest EP, Kicker, out now!
