KILLSWITCH ENGAGE Launch South American Tour Diary; Video Available
January 12, 2010, 14 years ago
In late October 2009, Killswitch Engage embarked on their first ever tour of South America. With stops in Brazil, Argentina, Ecuador, Chile and Colombia, The Massachusetts natives played in front of hungry crowds, who were eager to get a rare glimpse of the band in these countries.
The trip was documented and as of yesterday, Roadrunner will be releasing a new short behind the scenes clip every Monday over the next six weeks. The clips range from behind the scenes footage on the tour bus and backstage, interacting with fans, exploring new places, experimenting with fine dining and of course some typical Killswitch Engage shenanigans.
Watch the first clip below.
Next up for Killswitch will be an eight-week US headline tour, their first in support of their new self-titled album. Joining them for this run will be THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA and DARK TRANQUILLITY.
