(PR) Having sold virtually every ticket for their recently announced tour dates in support of the all-new all-instrumental The Mix-Up, Beastie Boys have announced additional full-scale shows and Gala Event Exclusive Instrumental Shows in a number of cities.
In other news, in an effort to lessen the tour's impact on the environment, Beastie Boys will make a $1.00 charitable donation from every ticket to an EcoFund through the non-profit organization ARIA (Artists Resources in Action) which supports Reverb, the outreach program to educate and engage musicians and their fans to promote environmental sustainability and fund local nonprofit organizations in the cities the tour visits. This will include offsetting CO2 emissions from band, crew and gear travel as well as the powering of the concerts; coordinating BioDiesel to be used in touring vehicles; arranging for voter registration at all shows; coordinating local and national non-profit organizations to conduct environmental and social justice education and outreach at shows; and the funding of non-profit organizations working to achieve environmental sustainability.
