During these supporting tour dates, the [ponkers] will introduce, "Karaoke Nights with MxPx," giving fans the chance to karaoke their favorite MxPx songs. The band will choose one lucky fan online through a video submission process, which will guarantee them a slot. The other one or two fans will be chosen directly out of the audience or pre-show at the bands discretion. Exact entry details will be announced shortly on the bands official website, mxpx.com, prior to each tour date.
"It's all about playing with friends and making each show feel like a family setting," said MxPx drummer, Yuri Ruley. "Who knows, we might find someone that could give Mike a real run for his money."
Along their new musical trek, MxPx will be making key stops at Austin's SXSW, the Ernie Ball Showcase Party, as well as the Hoodwink Festival, and both Bamboozle Left and Right. MxPx is Mike Herrera (bass/vocals), Tom Wisniewski (guitars) and Yuri Ruley (drums). In the span of 15 years, the band has sold over 2.5 million records, releasing their latest album Secret Weapon through Tooth & Nail Records in July 2007.
