How’s this for working in a COVID-19 world? Godsmack singer Sully Erna and Staind singer Aaron Lewis are touring together, performing side-by-side, in an intimate and unplugged evening on “The American Drive-In Tour”, starting October 1.

This is one of the first 2020 drive-in live rock concert tours planned across multiple cities and should be memorable nights for fans.

Erna said, “Me and Aaron Lewis? Onstage together…acoustic? Do I need to say more? Just don’t miss it! It may never happen again.”

Lewis said, “Sully and I have been friends for 25 years. We’ve been talking about doing something for the last 10 years. The time has finally come. I couldn’t be more excited to be bringing this to you in such strange times.”

Clearly they’re good friends. Check out a recent episode of Sully’s podcast where Aaron joined him for a chat. The whole thing is worth watching.

Tickets are on sale as of today (September 15) at noon local time at www.aaronandsully.com.
