Dashboard, Panic At The Disco to Rock this fall

You can almost hear the music snobs readying their best sneers for this one. Panic At the Disco and Dashboard Confessional are confirmed as co-headliners for the first-ever Rock Band Live Tour, set to kick off on Oct. 5 in San Diego.

The tour, which also includes Plain White T's and The Cab, will fully incorporate the Rock Band experience by giving concert-goers the opportunity to compete against other teams in hopes of making it up to the main stage so the entire venue can see what golden gods are really made of.
