SST The Tour

Meat Puppets, Mike Watt & Husker Du's Grant Hart touring together

Three legendary musicians from SST’s prime era are teaming up for a tour this spring. The Meat Puppets and the Minutemen’s Mike Watt (with his early 2000s era backing band The Jom and Terry Show) are co-headlining the tour, and select dates have support from Husker Du’s Grant Hart. All it needs is members of Saccharine Trust and SWA and it’d be 1985’s SST – The Tour all over again.

The tour hits NYC on May 10 at Brooklyn Bowl. Tickets for that show go on sale Friday (2/17) at 10 AM.

Meat Puppets also play Treefort and have other dates happening before that tour too. Mike Watt has some shows of his own as well. All known dates are listed below.

Last year, Meat Puppet’s Cris Kirkwood joined ’70s-era Phoenix punks the Exterminators for the release of their first album ever. Read our interview with Cris on that album, the Phoenix punk scene, tons of Meat Puppets stories, and more.

Grant Hart’s former Husker Du bandmate Bob Mould was just in NYC for two shows. Check out pics.
