Billy Idol Announces Tour with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts for Summer 2025: See the Dates!

The rock legends kick off the North American trek in late April

It's a nice day for Billy Idol and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts to tour again.

The "Dancing With Myself" singer and band behind "Bad Reputation" are hitting the road for a string of North American concerts this summer, billed as It’s a Nice Day To…Tour Again.

Idol, 69, announced the tour with a video featuring comedian Matt Rife as a barista. In the clip, the "Rebel Yell" singer picks up a white mocha at a coffee shop.

Rife, 29, mumbles to himself that it's a "nice day for a white mocha," nodding to the lyrics of Idol's 1982 hit "White Wedding."

However, it doesn't stop there. Everywhere he goes, whether it's to dinner with Steve Stevens or out for a drive, the rocker is reminded of his songs because of Rife.

Idol consults a professional: Jett.

"Everywhere I go, I see him. I hear him. I can't help but feel that it's some kind of sign," he tells Jett, 66, who suggests, "It's a nice day to tour again." Then, she turns into Rife.

Idol and Jett will begin their trek in late April in Phoenix. Along the way, the rockers will stop in New York, Nashville, Philadelphia, Toronto and Seattle, among other cities, before wrapping in Los Angeles.
