“Anybody can start a band when you’re 20 and go on tour and have a couple of years of fun with that. But what it became, at least to us, is the reason that we can still do this now,” vocalist Matt Pryor said in a statement. “We are doing this as a celebration, and we’re going to have a party every night on stage.”
The Get Up Kids previously celebrated their debut effort, Four Minute Mile, with a similar tour in 2022. The band’s most recent album is 2019’s Problems. Check out where The Get Up Kids rank on our list of the 100 best pop punk bands.
