Reale says, "We're excited to once again have the opportunity to play for our Japanese fans who've been so supportive over the years. This particular lineup only made it to Japan once before so this will be extra special for both us and the fans. "

The dates are as follows:

Oct. 23 - Shangri-La - Osaka, Japan
