Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes Tour 2011
The Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes Tour was a 2011 concert tour by Social Distortion. It was the first tour in support of Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes. This tour also marked the band's first appearance in Australia by performing at the Soundwave (Australian music festival). The band also brought out Frank Turner on the European leg of the tour, but it would not be the last nor was it the first time he opened for Social Distortion. He previously opened for the band on the Social Distortion 2010 Tour when he played all the dates on the North American tour along with Lucero. During the tour, Social Distortion made their third television appearance by performing "Machine Gun Blues" on Conan.
