(PR) Phantom Planet has unveiled its summer tour schedule, including both headline shows as well as a major cross-country run alongside FBR labelmates, Paramore. The news comes amid a flurry of promotional activity and critical acclaim surrounding the California-based band's just-released label debut, "RAISE THE DEAD."The headline dates will kick off on July 8th at Seattle, Washington's El Corazon, with additional stops in Seattle, Portland, and Orangevale, California. Next, Phantom Planet will pair up with Paramore for the "The Final RIOT – Paramore Summer Tour '08," beginning on July 29th at Henderson, Nevada's Henderson Pavilion. The multi-act bill – which also includes Jack's Mannequin and Paper Route – will then travel North America through an August 30th finale at the Chevrolet Theatre in Wallingford, Connecticut.
As if that weren't enough, the band – which has only just wrapped its supporting role on the 2008 Honda Civic Tour with Panic At The Disco – will also share the stage at Costa Mesa, California's Pacific Amphitheatre with OneRepublic on July 12th, then travel to Japan for the upcoming Nano-Mugen Festival, set for July 20th at the Yokohama Arena in Yokohama.
