No PNW dates, but last time around, they announced those dates as kind of an addendum (or afterthought). They also have European and Australian dates on their schedule.

And playing the Sydney Opera House!

They played the Wembley arena for 2 hours. The band is saying that this is the last full out tour but they will be still active after that. They've already been announced as the headliners on next year's Little Steven Underground Garage cruise.

I guess things like the Underground Garage Cruise, residencies in cities like Las Vegas, etc. are becoming the norm for a lot of bands who get worn out on touring. As I mentioned on another thread, my brother and I are seeing The B-52's in Las Vegas tonight. And I just found out this morning that No Doubt has a six-week residency at The Sphere, starting the first week in May.

Saw the Damned last year and was well impressed by their energy and enthusiasm
