(Atlantic Records) Gym Class Heroes have announced details of their arena tour alongside Lil Wayne. The dates � which feature a multi-artist bill that also includes T-Pain, Keyshia Cole, and Keri Hilson � will kick off December 14th at Miami's American Airlines Arena and then travel the U.S. through early January. Among the tour's certain highlights will be a New Year's Eve extravaganza at the Philips Arena in Atlanta.

Gym Class Heroes will herald the upcoming tour with a performance of "Guilty As Charged" on the December 11th installment of NBC's Last Call with Carson Daly. This follows the Geneva, NY-based outfit's recent appearance on NBC's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

GCH � who recently wrapped a blockbuster co-headline tour with The Roots and Homeschool/Atlantic Records' own Estelle � have also slated headline shows in advance of the tour, including yesterday's kickoff performance at WNOU's Santa Slam 2008 at Indianapolis' Murat Centre Egyptian Room. The holiday concert will include support from We The Kings, Secondhand Serenade, and Yung Berg.

The tour follows this summer's release of Gym Class Heroes' acclaimed fourth album, "THE QUILT." The collection � which follows 2006's RIAA gold-certified breakthrough, "AS CRUEL AS SCHOOL CHILDREN," features the hit singles/videos, "Cookie Jar (Feat. The-Dream)," "Peace Sign/Index Down (Feat. Busta Rhymes)," and "Guilty As Charged (Feat. Estelle)."
