Touring Animals: Toad the Wet Sprocket, Dinosaur Jr. and Beartooth
TOAD THE WET SPROCKET
toadthewetsprocket.com
Platinum-selling American Alternative rock band Toad the Wet Sprocket is returning to Minneapolis as part of their tour for their new album Starting Now.
The 2021 tour is the first time the band is back on the road since their 30th Anniversary tour in 2019. We caught the band in July 2015 and noted what a massive fanbase they have: “Very dedicated fans, driving as far as South Dakota, was at the show on Thursday. Most of them proudly buying the VIP package, which included a pre-signed poster of the current Smash Mouth/Toad tour and other goodies only available on only on this tour and side show.”
