MySpace hosting U.S. concert tour this fall

Steve Safran August 29th, 2007

MySpace will hold a tour of 30 concerts this fall, featuring acts that have a big following on its social network. The MySpace Music Tour begins October 16 in Seattle and finishes up in Vegas in late November. According to CNet:

The headlining acts for the MySpace Music Tour will be two artists who’ve built up large followings on the social networking site–geeky pop band Hellogoodbye and emo act Say Anything. The tour will also include the Japanese punk band Polysics, who have been signed to the new MySpace Records label, as well as yet-to-be-announced guests.

Of course, sales are going to be through a community page on MySpace, where there will also be pix and band blogs from the tour. Remember when MTV did music?
