In conjunction with their upcoming greatest hits disc due out this November, 3 Doors Down will spend the majority of the winter months out on a run of co-headlining U.S. tour dates with Daughtry. The trek kicks off  on Nov. 17 in Tunica, Miss., and is scheduled to wrap on Dec. 15 in Anaheim, Calif.
The tour will mark the first time 3 Doors Down will share the headlining bill, and singer Brad Arnold couldn’t be more excited. “We’re very excited to hit the road with our friends, Daughtry. It’s an honor to be a part of this tour,” Arnold said.

Arnold also believes that friendship will lead to a lot of magic onstage: “I believe the fans will see more than two great rock bands on stage. The comradery of this tour will, no doubt, shine through night after night. We want to give the fans more than they came to see. We want them all to leave knowing they’ve just witnessed something special.”

Daughtry seemed as equally excited about the upcoming run, saying, “It’s an honor to be able to go on the road with 3 Doors Down. We are excited to give fans an energetic rock show every night sharing songs from both our catalogs … we can’t wait to hit the road to share it with our fans.”
