Geese Announce Massive Fall Tour With a Stop at Petco Park in San Diego
Geese just announced one of the most stacked fall tours of 2026, and San Diego is on the list. The Brooklyn four-piece is bringing the Getting Killed Again tour to Gallagher Square at Petco Park on October 13, and if you've been paying attention to what this band has been doing over the past year, you already know this is going to be something special.
The 20-date run kicks off September 29 at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville and wraps November 10 at Roadrunner in Boston. In between, the band is hitting rooms that would've seemed impossible for them just two years ago. Forest Hills Stadium in Queens. Hollywood Forever in LA for two nights. Fox Theater in Oakland. The Salt Shed in Chicago on Halloween. These are serious upgrades.
San Diego Gets a Big One
I'll be real, seeing Geese listed at Gallagher Square at Petco Park got my attention immediately. That's a venue that pulls in some of the biggest names that come through San Diego, and the fact that this band is playing there tells you everything about the trajectory they're on. The October 13 date slots in perfectly between their Phoenix stop on the 8th and two nights at Hollywood Forever on the 15th and 16th. If you're anywhere in Southern California, this is the one to lock in.
Why This Tour Matters
The tour is in support of Getting Killed, the band's fourth album, released in September 2025 on Partisan Records. That record was a critical smash. The New Yorker and Stereogum both named it the best album of 2025, and Consequence had it at number two. It hit number 96 on the Billboard 200 and topped the UK Independent Albums Chart. For a band that was recording in a Fort Greene basement not that long ago, those numbers are wild.
The album was recorded in just ten days at producer Kenny Beats' Putnam Hill studio in LA during the Southern California wildfires. Cameron Winter described the process as a "waking nightmare until it's mastered." You can hear that urgency all over the record, from the grinding textures of Taxes to the restless energy of Trinidad. If you haven't sat with this album yet, do that before the tour.
The Bigger Picture
The move to larger venues isn't just about momentum. During the 2025 tour, Geese shows were hit hard by ticket scalping, with resale prices reaching anywhere from $300 to $1,000. The band even partnered with CashorTrade to try to keep resale prices fair. Scaling up to venues like Petco Park and Forest Hills Stadium is a direct response to that demand. More seats, more access for actual fans.
And honestly, the band has earned every bit of it. They performed on Saturday Night Live in January 2026, playing Au Pays du Cocaine and Trinidad. Frontman Cameron Winter also released a solo album, Heavy Metal, in December 2024 that got widespread critical acclaim and brought even more eyes to the project. The press release for this tour also hints that more new music from Geese is coming "soon," which lines up with reports that the band was recording a potential fifth album with Kenny Beats as far back as August 2025.
About the Whole "Psy-Op" Thing
You might've seen some headlines floating around about Geese and a PR firm called Chaotic Good Projects. A Wired article from earlier this month dug into how the firm distributed performance clips and interview footage across TikTok on behalf of the band. Some people called it a "psy-op." The band seems to be leaning into the joke, with some coverage playfully calling their fans "psy-op victims." Whatever your take on it, the music speaks for itself. These guys can play, and that Forest Hills Stadium show isn't selling out because of TikTok clips.
