Jan. 21 (UPI) -- Billy Idol announced a new tour with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts on Tuesday. The duo will visit 30 cities in the U.S. and Canada from April 30 - Sept. 25.

Stops on the tour include Madison Square Garden in New York, Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado and Budweiser Stage in Toronto.

Idol filmed a video to announce the tour in which he is plagued by lyrics from his songs. Comedian Matt Rife says, "It's a nice day for a white mocha," "More more more" and quotes other Idol songs.

Jett appeared as Idol's therapist and bandmate Steve Stevens appears at a dinner with Idol. He named the tour "It's a Nice Day To... Tour Again" after his "White Wedding" lyric, also spoofed in the mocha line.

Idol received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2023. Jett toured with Alanis Morisette last year.
