SLAYER, MARILYN MANSON - Summer Co-Headlining Tour Schedule Revealed
May 7, 2007, 17 years ago
Tour dates for this summer's match made in Heaven... or Hell... are announced today. MARILYN MANSON and SLAYER's 25-city co-headline North American tour will kick off on July 25th in West Palm Beach, FL, pillaging its way cross-country to wrap up in San Antonio, TX on September 1st. Confirmed dates are below.
For this two-pronged-threat double bill, Slayer and Manson will each play full sets with BLEEDING THROUGH and one other support band, yet to be determined, opening all shows.
Marilyn Manson just wrapped up work on his upcoming June release, to be titled Eat Me, Drink Me.
Celebrating it's 26th year together, the always-uncompromising Slayer was recently named "Best Live Band" in SPIN's 2006 Readers Poll, and picked up their first Grammy Award in February for "Best Metal Performance". Their latest album, Christ Illusion - which debuted at #5 on Billboard's Albums Chart - takes on the U.S. Government about the War in Iraq, prompting one newspaper to speculate, "If Thomas Jefferson were alive today, he undoubtedly would be listening to Slayer."
