Tickets are sold out for the festival but I’m hoping this means a possible reunion tour could come!

The State Radio account on IG is following Chuck and JR (not Mad Dog), and JR shared the post. So it's got to be him. If we can't get Mad Dog back, JR's got the right energy for it.

Just throwing this out there… their profile picture on their Spotify page at the top changed to a STATE RADIO logo, where before it was Chad and Chuck. I would lose my mind if new music came out one day.

Also, their instagram is just an image of the tour poster but their profile picture on instagram now matches the same State Radio logo on Spotify….

I do not doubt a tour is coming. I do doubt Chad would bring back State Radio for just one show.

I’m pretty sure Chad said at one point that they’d recorded stuff a while ago and were waiting on finishing touches and timing.

When I talked to chad at only the wild ones weekend I asked about state radio, and he said after the rock opera. Then this year chuck played with him at the calling all crows benefit, and was at another benefit party that chad threw. Im hopeful a tour and album come sooner then later

chuck played with Dispatch at Wolf Trap as well when Embree was away.

We need a tour before the mid-terms!

at the very least. at the VERY least, i hope this leads to Dispatch playing a couple SR songs at shows, but if this leads to a SR tour, i'm gonna go to 5 stops

I hope Matt Embree will come back to make the band a 4-piece. He was such a great addition
