Maroon 5 Announce U.S./Canada Summer Tour

Adam Levine, Jesse Carmichael, Mickey Madden, James Valentine and Matt Flynn of Maroon 5 checked in with a video announcing details about their Summer 2008 tour of America and Canada, which features opening acts Counting Crows, Augustana and Sara Bareilles, and kicks off July 25th at the Verizon Wireless Virginia Beach Amphitheater.

“I just wanted to inform you about our summer tour, which is gonna be incredible,” Levine said. “Probably the greatest tour of all time. I would say definitely the best tour of all time. It’s gonna be a good time, and I think our fans are gonna have a blast and I can pretty much guarantee fun. There’s gonna be other bands playing, like Counting Crowes, and Sara Bareilles, you should check that out. It will be good. You should watch them, they’re very exciting, but if you’d please cover your ears for their shows and save your ears for ours, it would be good.”
