On May 24, Honda will extend its second annual Civic Tour to join up with Minneapolis radio station KXXR's annual 93X Fest 2002 to be held at the Float-Rite Amphitheater in Somerset, WI. On the heels of the resounding success of the inaugural Civic Tour in 2001 (with two separate legs featuring blink-182 in major markets and Everclear in secondary markets playing to intimate packed houses), the expanded Civic Tour 2002 features Southern California's Incubus for a 50 date arena tour across the U.S. Along with Incubus, the line-up for 93X Fest 2002 includes Hoobastank, Kid Rock, Papa Roach, Sevendust, Phantom Planet and Gravity Kills.

Civic Tour will display the all-new 2002 Honda Civic Si that has been custom-designed by Incubus at the festival, along with sponsoring 93X's special "Area 93" extreme adventure area, where X-Festers can experience attractions such as the X-treme Halfpipe and professional wrestling as well as try their hand at disc golf and play video games. Fans can also listen to 93X to win custom "Inc-U-boards" (skateboards) autographed by Incubus.

Civic Tour is a unique promotion where music fans can catch Incubus and have a chance at winning all-new customized 2002 Honda Civic Si's designed and autographed by the band. Created and produced by marketingfactoryinc., Civic Tour is bringing the new Civic Si closer to youthful, contemporary drivers, while offering music fans more from their favorite bands. Incubus custom-designed and autographed several 2002 Honda Civic Si's, one of which will tour the country on display at their concerts. Fans can enter to win one of the Incubus Si's through a national online promotion at the official Civic Tour Web site, www.civictour.com.
