Recommended Posts

The Steve Miller Band has tacked more shows onto the group's in-progress run through North America behind its forthcoming new album, "Bingo!"

The roadwork gets started May 21 in Henderson, NV, and crisscrosses the nation, stopping by casinos, theaters and festivals through early October.

Since last check, 17 new dates have been added, including shows in Toronto (6/30), Montreal (7/5) and San Francisco (9/22). The full schedule is shown at right.

Along with classics from the band's impressive repertoire, shows will also include new material from "Bingo!," the first of two new albums that the group recorded at George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch. The effort, which hits retailers June 15, will contain blues and R&B songs, some of which feature conga player Michael Carabello, a founding member of Santana.

The new release will be available in two formats: a 10-track digipack CD and a special edition that includes four extra tracks and additional artwork. Both options are available for pre-order now at Amazon.com.

The album's lead single, "Hey Yeah," is currently streaming at the band's website.

The classic rockers made it big in the 1970s with the No. 1 songs "The Joker" and "Rock'n Me," along with fellow fan favorites "Take the Money and Run," "Fly Like an Eagle" and "Jet Airliner." Their last No. 1 hit came in 1982 with "Abracadabra."
