2011 concert tour by the Cars
The Cars North American Tour Spring 2011 is a set of eleven concerts in the United States and Canada featuring the newly reunited American band The Cars. Announced in April 2011 prior to the release of the band's album "Move Like This", the concerts feature material from "Move Like This" and from the band's 1970s and 1980s albums. 
Singer/guitarist Ric Ocasek, keyboardist Greg Hawkes, guitarist Elliot Easton and drummer David Robinson performed as a quartet, as original Cars singer and bassist Benjamin Orr died in 2000. Orr's bass parts were performed by Hawkes on keyboard and bass, while the vocals on songs originally sung by Orr ("Just What I Needed", "Let's Go" and "Moving in Stereo") were performed by Ocasek. As Ocasek died on September 15, 2019, this is the final tour from the band.
Reception.
The performances and set lists were met with mixed reviews: "The Hollywood Reporter" reviewer Erik Pedersen found "Move Like This" to be a "surprisingly good" album but described the Hollywood Palladium show as "icy" and unenthusiastic. "San Jose Mercury News" reviewer Jim Harrington described the band's performance at Oakland's Fox Theater as "incredibly flat and dispassionate", but praised the band's "solid" musicianship.
