Coinciding with their newly released EP Texicali, the tour visited arenas and amphitheaters from May through June 2012, supported by opening acts 3 Doors Down and Gretchen Wilson.

It made use of cinematic elements to instill the simulation of a feature film to the audience.

Consisting of 23 shows, Gang of Outlaws began in Manchester, New Hampshire on May 25, 2012, and ended in Hinckley, Minnesota on June 29, 2012.

Despite no sellouts, the show in Estero, Florida was the highest-grossing event, selling over three-thousand tickets.

Although none of ZZ Top's newer material was performed, a song from Texicali was added to the set list for the group's next tour in Europe.
