Paramore plots summer 'Riot' dates

Indie rockers Paramore will mount a summer headlining trek following the conclusion of the band's current dates as part of the Vans Warped Tour .

The outing, dubbed "The Final Riot!"--alluding to the title of the band's most recent studio album--kicks off July 28 in Reno, NV, following the completion of Paramore's Warped Tour duties and upcoming European trek, as well as a few festival dates in July.

Labelmates Phantom Planet, along with alt-rockers Jack's Mannequin and Paper Route, will appear on several of the tour's stops. The full schedule is below; more information on support acts and overseas dates is posted at Paramore's official website.

"Riot!," Paramore's sophomore set on the Fueled by Ramen label, debuted at No. 20 on The Billboard 200 last June, eventually peaking at No. 15. The album's first single, "Misery Business," rose to No. 34 on the Billboard Hot 100 last summer, and scored heavy play on MTV.

Fueled By Ramen re-released "Riot!" as an interactive-video special-edition last fall. The set features bonus tracks, live performances and karaoke versions of "Misery Business" and another of the album's singles, "Crushcrushcrush."
