HAIL! To Guest On Eddie Trunk Live
January 19, 2010, 14 years ago
The all-star band HAIL! - comprised of bassist David Ellefson (MEGADETH, F5), guitarist Andreas Kisser (SEPULTURA), vocalist Tim "Ripper" Owens (JUDAS PRIEST, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, ICED EARTH) and newly appointed drummer Mike Portnoy (DREAM THEATER) - are scheduled to appear on Eddie Trunk Live this coming Monday, January 25th, on Sirius Channel 19 and XM Channel 53.
As previously reported, HAIL! will be performing their first ever Stateside shows. Dates are as follows:
January
26 - BB Kings - New York City, NY27 - Showcase Live - Foxborough, MA
A third date is rumored but unconfirmed at this time.
While Hail! has played all over the globe in the past year, they have yet to grace a North American stage and now the much anticipated event is here. “We can’t hold all the rabid fans off any longer,” said singer Tim “Ripper” Owens. “We only have a few days together on the east coast so we’re bringing it to you!”
“We’re really excited! Although it’s only a few shows, and obviously we’d love to play a full tour of the entire US, New York and Boston are two great cities to start with and the fans there are tremendous. Between Mike Portnoy playing drums with us and all the friends we know in this area (hint, hint) I’d ask Santa for a tent and start camping out now for my tickets!” advised Andreas Kisser, “these shows are going to be sick!"
