Diesel Boy has expanded its Cock Rock 30th anniversary tour with new July and September dates.
Diesel Boy has announced additional dates for its Cock Rock 30th anniversary tour following a successful first run of anniversary shows. The band will return to the road in July with performances across the United States and Canada.
Moreover, several stops will feature pop-punk veterans Fenix TX. In September, Diesel Boy will join forces with ska-punk favorites Mad Caddies for a week of shows across the West Coast, Mountain West, and Rocky Mountain region. The band also plans to reveal more winter dates in the coming months.
Frontman Diesel Dave thanked fans for their enthusiastic support during the first leg of the tour. He shared that the band enjoyed hearing fans sing along and listening to their stories after each show.
Although the performances were physically demanding, he said they left the group feeling grateful and excited to hit the road again. He also encouraged fans not to miss the upcoming concerts, noting that the anniversary tour may not happen again.
Anniversary Tour Continues Across North America
The July shows will once again feature Cock Rock performed in full. In addition, fans can expect classic favorites and deeper cuts from Diesel Boy’s catalog. The September dates will pair the band with Mad Caddies, creating a lineup that celebrates decades of California punk and ska-punk.
Originally formed in Northern California, Diesel Boy became a staple of the punk scene through releases on Honest Don’s Records, the Fat Wreck Chords imprint that released Cock Rock in 1996. After more than 20 years without a new album, the band returned in 2023 with Gets Old.
The release received strong reviews and helped revive Diesel Boy’s touring career in North America and Europe. Today, the band continues to reconnect with longtime fans while introducing its melodic, witty punk sound to new audiences.
The July tour begins in Bellingham, Washington, on July 19 before visiting Detroit, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Quebec City, Lowell, Rutherford, and Providence through August 1.
Meanwhile, the September run starts in San Francisco on September 7. The tour then continues through Chico, Reno, Boise, Salt Lake City, Casper, and concludes in Denver on September 13 alongside Mad Caddies.
