More dates for Papa Roach, Zippo Hot winners

The itinerary has grown for the recently launched Zippo Hot Tour, which features headliners Papa Roach , as well as Hed P.E. and battle-of-the-bands winner Stealing December.

The outing, which launched Tuesday (11/14) on Stealing December's home turf in the Philadelphia area, now stretches into mid-December thanks to recently added stops in about 10 cities. Details are shown below.

Last month, rockers Stealing December were crowned the winners of the Zippo Hot Tour competition, which pitted bands from around the country against each other.

"Two days ago, I drove myself to the [Philadelphia Theater of Living Arts] in my Jeep Cherokee [to see] Plus 44 [perform]," bassist Joe Risatano wrote in a blog entry posted at the Zippo Hot Tour's MySpace page. "Tuesday, I arrived in a state-of-the-art tour bus with an All Access Pass around my neck. Forty-eight hours can make a big difference."

Papa Roach, which recently wrapped up a stretch as the show-opener on Guns N' Roses headlining run, is backing its recently release album, "The Paramour Sessions." The disc, which is the band's fifth full-length album, features the lead-off single "To Be Loved," the music video for which is streaming at the group's website.

In June, Southern California's Hed P.E., which describes its hip-hop/punk sound as "G-punk," offered up its latest disc, "Back 2 Base X."
