The month-long trek will end on October 13 in Joliet, Illinois. NONPOINT said in a statement: "We'd like to thank our friend Ahrue Luster for joining us on this next run! Your skills are INSANE and we look forward to introducing you to our family the #NonpointNation and appreciate your help on this next run!" Luster continues to be a member of ILL NIÑO, which is embroiled in a legal battle with drummer Dave Chavarri over the rights to the band's name.
