The Suffer Tour was a tour by punk rock band Bad Religion in support of their third album, ''Suffer''. This was the band's first tour in support of an album. Prior to this, the band mainly only played shows within their home state of California, however they had previously played near-by states such as Nevada,〔(10/13/1984 - Las Vegas, NV | Tours & shows | The Bad Religion Page - Since 1995 )〕 Texas〔(06/02/1984 - Fort Worth, TX | Tours and shows | The Bad Religion Page - Since 1995 )〕 and Arizona,〔(04/08/1988 - Phoenix, AZ | Tours & shows | The Bad Religion Page - Since 1995 )〕 as well as a short East Coast tour in 1986.〔(1986 - East Coast Tour | Tours & shows | The Bad Religion Page - Since 1995 )〕 This also marked the first time the band toured Europe, which was documented in the concert video, ''Along the Way'', released the following year, in 1990. According to bass player, Jay Bentley after the North American leg of the tour, the band had individually lost $1000 each, due to the expenses of travelling and renting equipment. Bentley, who was working at Epitaph at the time, got a call from a European promoter, asking if Bad Religion would come over to Europe. Initially, due to the monetary loss of the North American tour, Bentley declined the offer, but the band was eventually convinced and were surprised at the level of interest they had in Europe, with each show being filled.〔(Complete Control - Jay Bentley (Bad Religion) and Comedian Iliza Shlesinger - YouTube )〕 Brett Gurewitz recalled a similar experience from their first European tour in an interview for German television in 2007.〔(Bad Religion - Brett interview German TV 2007 - YouTube )〕 The footage from the European leg of the tour was used for Bad Religion's first concert film, ''Along the Way''. Brett missed the final two dates on this leg of the tour to get married. ==Band Members== Greg Graffin - Vocals Brett Gurewitz - Guitar Greg Hetson - Guitar Jay Bentley - Bass Pete Finestone - Drums Karat Faye - F.O.H.
