The Go-Go's have just rolled out a string of winter U.S. dates along with a half-dozen spring UK arena shows opening for Billy Idol.
The soon-to-be Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees will play a five-date Western run, starting on December 28th at San Francisco's The Masonic and wrapping on January 3rd at the San Diego Civic Theater. The band will play a New Year's Eve (December 31st) show during a two-night Las Vegas stop.
We just caught up with Go-Go's drummer Gina Schock who told us she can't wait for the band to ramp up ASAP: “It's just such a wonderful, magical thing when we play together onstage. I can't wait, of course for us to be inducted, but, actually — I can't wait to get onstage with the (laughs) girls and play again. We're playing, I think, like, six or seven shows; but they're settin' up stuff for next year. We're doin' a bunch of arenas with Billy Idol in the UK. We're playing, like, Wembley, and Leeds, and Manchester — I think, seven shows. It's gonna be very exciting and they're settin' up shows already in the States.”
