The group embarked on the headlining One-X Tour, beginning in May 2007, and were joined by Breaking Benjamin and Puddle of Mudd as supporting acts.[1] The first leg of the tour concluded on June 29, 2007, in Hawaii.[2] The also played one date in Nagasaki, Japan on July 4.[3] Following a fall co-headlining tour with Breaking Benjamin from September to November,[4] the group embarked on the second leg of the One-X Tour in North America, from January to March 2008, beginning in Canada.[5] They were supported by Econoline Crush, Breaking Benjamin and Seether.[6][7] More shows were added for Canadian dates from April to July, with support from My Darkest Days.[8] The tour concluded in Europe with its third leg running from October to November 2008.[8]

Reception

A review for the concert at Kool Haus in Toronto, by Jason MacNeil of Jam! Canoe wrote, "Opening a sold-out, two-night stand at Toronto's Kool Haus Thursday evening, Three Days Grace executed this blueprint to a tee before the youthful, party-hard crowd routinely pumping their fists or giving lead singer Adam Gontier and company the devil horn salute [...] While much of the songs seem to rely on Gontier's occasional growls and the work of mohawk-sporting guitarist Barry Stock, bassist Brad Walst and drummer Neil Sanderson also held their own during 'Let It Die'. Aside from the lighting guys, Sanderson might have had the best seat in the house perched on a rather lofty drum riser."[9] Another writer from Jam! Canoe, Lindsey Ward commented on the concert at MTS Centre in Winnipeg, remarking, "At press time, plans to start a 'Riot' were still on deck. Let's hope the noisy One-X track was wild enough to suffice among ballads like 'Never Too Late' and 'Wake Up', which were also still to come. Grunge-heads still mourning the loss of Kurt Cobain would have either loved or loathed the opening set from Seether, who have honed Nirvana's sound to the point where, at times, it sort of creeps us out."[10] Writing for Club Kingsnake, Clint Gilders wrote a review for the concert at the Asphodel-Norwood Community Centre in Norwood, Ontario, stating, "This being a homecoming I was hoping for more audience interaction from lead singer Adam Gontier and maybe some anecdotes about growing up in Norwood. Instead it was pretty much a straight ahead Three Days Grace show with little between song banter and uncomfortable pauses between songs. Adam does do an amazing unaccompanied acoustic version of Alice in Chains 'The Rooster'. I dig their music but have yet to be thrilled by Three Days Grace live, but my hats off to them for doing this benefit concert in their hometown."[11]

Recording

Guitarist Barry Stock told Billboard that they would be filming their concert at The Palace of Auburn Hills in Michigan, in March 2008.[12] The Live at the Palace 2008 DVD was released on August 19, 2008.[13] The recording was directed by Michael Drumm.[14] The DVD peaked at number five on the Billboard Top Music Videos Chart.[15]
