Slipknot Confirm World Tour + U.S. Headline Dates with Hatebreed
Yesterday we reported on a rumor that Slipknot would be heading out on another leg of the Prepare for Hell Tour, and hey, wouldn’t ya know it, this morning we received a press release confirming the news and announcing dates.
The massive trek just kicked off in the UK this week and heads to mainland Europe at the end of the month, before jetting over to Australia for the Soundwave Festival at the end of February. After some time off, the ‘Knot will be hitting some U.S. markets starting at the end of April that they missed during their first headline tour on this album cycle, with Korn and King 810, this past fall; this time they’ll have Hatebreed in tow. Then in June they’ll head back to Europe to play all the massive summer festivals.
