The Sex Pistols Featuring Frank Carter Reveal North American Tour Support
(Scoop) The Sex Pistols (Steve Jones, Paul Cook, and Glen Matlock) featuring Frank Carter have revealed the high-energy opening artists joining the punk icons on their highly anticipated, rescheduled 2026 North American tour.
The 2026 run represents a major milestone for the Sex Pistols, marking five decades since the band first ignited a movement that reshaped music and outsider culture worldwide. Kicking off September 11 at Dallas' historic Longhorn Ballroom, the band's first return to the venue since their infamous 1978 show, each date on the tour will feature a full performance of the landmark 1977 album Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols, plus additional songs.
The tour will feature: Panic Shack: Hailing from Cardiff, Wales, this irreverent energetic punk quintet will ignite the tour's opening leg across Texas, Nashville, Kansas City, Toronto, and Montreal.
Bad Nerves: The self-proclaimed "Powerpop-Rock'n'Roll" band from Essex, UK, takes over starting in Philadelphia and continues through the Northeast and Midwest, including stops in Boston, D.C., Cleveland, Detroit, and Columbus.
Starcrawler: Los Angeles' own punk rock-and-roll wildcards will provide support through the West, hitting Minneapolis, Denver, Salt Lake City, Seattle, and San Francisco.
Militarie Gun: Bringing their unique blend of melodic hardcore and alt-rock from L.A., the band joins the tour to close out the final dates in San Diego, Phoenix, and the tour finale at the Hollywood Palladium.
