The II Tour was a 20-month long concert tour by punk rock band Billy Talent, taking place in 2006 through to 2008 in support of their second studio album Billy Talent II. It holds record for one of the longest concert tours ever.
The band started the tour with a European leg, which started on April 29, 2006 at the Give it a Name festival, followed by a June appearance at the 2006 Download Festival, with more headlining and festival appearances in England, Germany, Austria and Switzerland. From there, the band continued into a North American leg, as part of the Vans Warped Tour.
The tour was finished on June 28, 2008 with the band's last appearance for 2008 at the Festival of Lights in Charlottetown, PE, Canada. The tour featured a total of 12 legs: 4 North American legs (with some Canadian dates), 5 European legs, 2 short exclusively Canadian legs, and 1 short Australian leg.
Even though the tour was for promoting the band's second album, in the last leg of the tour, the band debuted a new song entitled "Turn Your Back" from their then-upcoming third album Billy Talent III. The live versions featured Anti-Flag members Justin Sane and Chris #2, who later appeared on the single version (although not on the final album version).
