GWAR to Bring Down American Venues This Spring for Their 40th Anniversary Tour

0

Four years of decadence, debauchery, and destruction lay behind the mighty GWAR. Having conquered land masses all over the world, they’re returning to the U.S. for a handful of celebratory shows with some of today’s heavier outfits.

Set to kick off on May 15 in Columbia, South Carolina and coming to a close on June 21 in Pelham, Tennessee. Along the way, the tour will make a tot al of nine stops, with the likes of Arch Enemy, Eyehategod, Toxic Holocaust on various dates. Additionally, Aether Realm and Tracheotomy will be opening at each night (minus the festivals listed below).

Most of the dates preclude another tour they’ve got going on with Static-X in the ‘Machines vs. Monsters Tour’, which you can check out the dates for below. That run of dates will also include Dope and A Killer’s Confession as that line of shows’ openers.’

Pre-sales for the shows with Arch Enemy, Eyehategod and Toxic Holocaust have already started, with general ticket stales starting this Friday, February 21 at 10 a.m. local time.
