It also features more bands than you can shake a stick at but why would you do that to some talented musicians anyway. Here is their brief press copy along with the poster. I’ve taken the time to type up the whole list for you in case the poster is a little hard to see on the website.

Special guests include Four Year Strong and I The Mighty. Tickets and VIP upgrades are now available at www.silverstein20.com.

“It feels absolutely incredible to be celebrating 20 years as a band!”, says vocalist Shane Told. “It feels like just yesterday we were starting this thing in Josh’s basement – singing out of Shel Silverstein books and National Geographic magazines – and here we are embarking on our biggest tour ever.
