Metal Bands touring the US?

[alexofbodom]

Does anybody know what bands are doing a US tour this year?

I know that In Flames is coming in August to open for Soulfly and Slayer. They were awesome when I saw them with Jag Panzer and Iced Earth!!
Dream Theater is also doing one with Satriani and King's X. And Sinergy is planning one but it is still up in the air.

I'm still deciding whether I should go to the Milwaukee Metalfest. I definitely want to see Angel Dust, Jag Panzer, Tad Morose, Seven Witches, Arch Enemy, Into Eternity, and a couple other bands, but the large majority (like 90%) of the bands are death and black metal. Anybody here going?

SIX FEET UNDER & HATEBREED's "Death Across America" Tour might be interesting. it starts on July 27 in Milwaukee.
KING'S X, DREAM THEATER & JOE SATRIANI tour starts August 8 in Phoenix.

i think i'll stick close to home and go to the FURNACE FEST in Birmingham, Alabama on August 1,2,3. IN FLAMES, MESHUGGAH, HASTE, ZAO- lots of other bands on Tooth & Nail Records

THEY ARE?!?!?! The last time they played was out on Long Island at a place I'm not familiar with, but it was unfortunately while I was in Las Vegas...is it at the same place do you know? Oh damn, I'm so excited! I've never seen them live!

And to add to the topic, don't forget about the Kreator/Destruction tour SHREDDING its way through the States in September/October (alas, no Sodom). German thrash legends in 500-1000 capacity venues? Sign me up!

They played a few months ago at Mulcahy's in Wantagh, Long Island. It was one of the best shows I've ever seen..can't wait until September.

DT on the 14th
VS on the 21st

Ytse, is the show in September at Mulcahey's also? I thought it was some place closer to the North Shore, maybe started with a 'V' but I could of course be mistaken...

When do tix go on sale, and can they be gotten through TicketBastard?

I'll be at Metalfest in Milwaukee at least 1 if not 2 days.....
Still waiting for the damn schedule!

This shows how much better organized ProgPower is than the Metalfest. We already have the schedule months before the festival, and the Metalfest is only two weeks away and still nothing! Ritchie (guitarist of Angel Dust) told me he would give me a copy of the schedule of the Metalfest as soon as he got one, but so far nothing. I definitely want to know because maybe all the bands I want to see play on the same day. I definitely do not want to sit through hours of death and black metal.

Jay, not only do we have our choice of grimy L'Amours in Brooklyn on 9/13, but they're playing at Krome (used to be Club Bene) in South Amboy, NJ on 9/12.

To make matters better (as if), Virgin Steele will be hitting Long Island L'Amours in 9/21. September is metal month! Whattaya say?
