Get Happy Tour: actually slightly depressing...
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver October 16th, 2006

Somebody, somewhere, thinks these bands will make you happy, so much so that they've gone and called these dates the Get Happy Tour. See me, I'm crying inside...

Bowling For Soup are to (presumably) headline the four-band tour, above the former-Busted-star-featuring Son Of Dork (pictured, Fightstar > SoD?), one-hit-wonders Wheatus and Army Of Freshmen.

Expect a flurry of suicides around the country in February, dates and locations as follows...

February
6 Bristol Academy
7 Southampton Guildhall
8 Cambridge Corn Exchange
9 Cardiff University
10 Manchester Academy
12 Glasgow QMU
13 Nottingham Rock City
14 Leeds Metropolitan University
15 Norwich UEA
17 Birmingham Academy
18 London Hammersmith Palais

Leeds: take a date to this tour and you'll never get laid. Ever.
