The Justice Tour

The Justice Tour

On April 15, Tom Morello/The Nightwatchman will launch the two week, seven city Justice Tour. Each tour stop will feature a day of action, focusing on local political issues, and a day of music, performed by the Nightwatchman and some of his many famous friends.

Each date will include a day of activism alongside partner organizations and an evening of music with Morello alongside a variety of special guests including Slash, Perry Farrell, Sen Dog, Davey Havok of AFI, Boots Riley, Shooter Jennings, MC5 founder Wayne Kramer, Maynard James Keenan of Tool and Puscifer and others.

Each stop of the Justice Tour will include a day of activism to focus on a sphere of social justice in America: homelessness (Los Angeles), safe, secure and affordable housing (New Orleans), a living wage (Asheville), peace and veterans care (Washington, DC), affordable healthcare (Boston) and labor organizing (Chicago). In addition, Amnesty International’s TearItDown.org Campaign to Close Guantánamo, Project Noise and Morello’s own Axis Of Justice have joined as partner organizations throughout the tour. The itinerary also includes a previously announced show April 17 at New York’s Nokia Theater to benefit Road Recovery, a nonprofit that helps young people forge a future free from addiction and other adversities.

Tickets are $10 for all shows except the April 17 Road Recovery benefit in New York. Proceeds from each show benefit the local social justice partner. Tickets for most shows are on sale now at Ticketmaster outlets, ticketmaster.com, and local venue box offices. Tickets for the Berklee Performance Center in Boston go on sale April 12.
