Hoobastank, P.O.D and Alien Ant Farm set for UK tour

Hoobastank have announced a UK tour with P.O.D and Alien Ant Farm.

The trio of Californian bands open their 10-date jaunt in London on May 7.

Hoobastank frontman Doug Robb says: “We are extremely excited about finally coming back to the UK to play some shows. It’s been way too long.

“What better way, also, than to come back with two great bands that we have a long history and friendship with, P.O.D and Alien Ant Farm. We hope to see all the loyal fans who’ve waited so long for our return as well as make some new friends. We’ll see you soon.”

P.O.D guitarist Marcos Curiel adds: “We are so looking forward to crossing the Atlantic and rocking out for our fellow mates.”

And AAF singer Dryden Mitchell says: “UK crowds are some of the best in the world. I can’t wait to get over there. We’ve played many shows with both Hoobastank and P.O.D so to have us all together is going to make for a perfect night.”

Tickets go on sale at 9am on Friday (February 13) at LiveNation, priced at £22.
