DANKO JONES KICKS OFF U.S. TOUR!

Danko  Jones kicked off a round of U.S. tour dates in last night with a show  in Harrisburg, PA at Drinkin' Bone. Several remaining dates in February  include stops in New York, Hartford and Philadelphia with a new date  recently added on May 20 opening the Rock on the Range Festival in  Columbus, OH at Crew Stadium with a free pre-party concert for all  weekend festival ticket holders! Prior to the Rock on the Range date,  the band will return to Europe in April touring Sweden, Denmark,  Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands. More U.S. dates will be announced.

Danko Jones previously announced officially wrapping the filming of the third and final installment of their Below the Belt music video trilogy for the track "I Think Bad Thoughts." The video  marks the return of an all-star cast that had been previously featured  in both of the epic "Full of Regret" and "Had Enough" videos. The video  starring Elijah Wood, Ralph Macchio, Jena Malone, Mike Watt, Frank  Drank, Laura Margolis and Art Hsu will be officially released later this  month.

Danko  Jones capped off a huge year in 2010 and kicked off 2011 with a series  of live shows at the Sundance Film Festival, along with batch of brand  new interviews on Nikki Sixx's "Sixx Sense Radio" show and HD live  performances of songs "Full of Regret," "I Think Bad Thoughts," "Sugar  High," and "Cadillac" on JBTV.

Described by Maxim as "AC/DC sniffing glue with Motley Crue" and hailed by SPIN as "the world's most entertaining hard rockers," Danko Jones  (vox/guitar), John Calabrese aka JC (bass), and Dan Cornelius (drums)  have relentlessly toured the world over. Sharing stages with everyone  from hard rock icons Motörhead and Sepultura to rock heavyweights Guns  N' Roses and Nickelback to musical legends the Rolling Stones, the  Toronto trio may very well be one of the best, or worst, kept secrets in  music today.
