Two years ago, the classic rock act Toto embarked on its first full-on headlining run of the United States in a long time.

The group, which reformed in 2010 with former vocalist Joseph Williams and keyboardist Steve Porcaro coming back into the picture, played Cleveland for the first time in more than 20 years, selling out Hard Rock Live.

The group has continued to include Cleveland as a tour stop. It played Hard Rock Live again last year and will return to the venue on Aug. 25. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. on Friday.
