More European release parties have been announced for WHITESNAKE's new album, Good To Be Bad. At the release parties the whole album will be played, there will be competitions with exclusive three-track CDs, exclusive t-shirts and girlies and you can grab posters, stickers and postcards. Dates are below.

As previously revealed, there are several formats scheduled for the release of Whitesnake's Good To Be Bad, due out April 22nd via SPV/Steamhammer. In addition to the gatefold vinyl (with one bonus live cut) and standard version, complete with poster, stickers, etc., the first pressing features a second disc of live material, culled from European festival appearances. It's not all the '80s MTV hits, but rather (as anyone who saw those shows already knows) a walk through David Coverdale's history, back to his days in DEEP PURPLE. The 40-plus minutes consists of the following: 'Burn'/'Stormbringer', 'Give Me All Your Love Tonight', 'Walking In The Shadow Of The Blues', 'The Deeper The Love', 'Ready & Willing', 'Don't Break My Heart Again' and 'Take Me With You'. 'Ready To Rock' is included as a black and white live DVD bonus, lifted from their performance at Wacken, in 2006.

BW&BK; was part of a recent industry-only showcase in New York City for the forthcoming Good To Be Bad - a full report plus photos can be found here.
