What’s the connection between the two acts? A few years ago, Train was a guest on Daryl Hall’s Live from Daryl’s House series. A few years after that, John Oates was a guest on Train’s Sail Across the Sun Tour.
Train frontman Pat Monahan tweeted, “After being a fan of @realdarylhall & @JohnOates my entire life, we now get to go on a co-headline tour together!.”
He added, “This is going to be a career highlight for all of us in Train & a show that you won’t want to miss! Speaking of the show, not only do you get to see us perform separate sets, but each night we’ll be joining forces & playing a set together to close the show out!”
“This is going to be a tour filled with fun as well as great music,” Daryl told Rolling Stone in a statement. John told the publication, “Looking forward to an amazing tour with our buddies from Train and seeing all our fans around the country in 2018.”
