BLACK LABEL SOCIETY And MONSTER MAGNET MEMBERS To Join THE INFINITE STAIRCASE For Concert With THE VERVE PIPE

On Friday, December 30th multi-Platinum band The Verve Pipe will be playing Mount Airy Casino Resort in Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania. It was recently announced that Top 30 Mainstream Rock Band The Infinite Staircase, as well as local up and comers ZedD' Lance would be opening. 

To add to the New Year's Eve-Eve Festivities, The Infinite Staircase's Cerzosie brothers will be joined by Black Label Society/Cycle Of Pain Bassist John "JD" DeServio as well as Monster Magnet/The Atomic Bitchwax/Cycle Of Pain Drummer Bob Pantella. And rounding out the group's revolving door of live band members for this special acoustic performance is New Jersey's own Art Franklin of Ixion Lux on Keyboards. 

The Infinite Staircase of course are no strangers to DeServio or Pantella, having toured, recorded and performed live with DeServio on numerous occasions (including their Top 30 Hit "The Pride") and just last year they recorded and released a Christmas EP entitled Gingerbread Pop that Bob Pantella engineered and performed on. Both Cerzosie brothers have since worked separately with Bob in the studio, Lenny with Le Projet (the group featuring members of Candlebox and Sevendust) and Jeff on an unspecified effort.

Meanwhile, fans of The Infinite Staircase are still waiting for the group to release The Dead Cricket Sessions, their long-awaited Covers EP that once again features DeServio on bass, keys, percussion, backing vocals and engineering duties. 

Coincidentally or not, according to The Infinite Staircase's social media pages, The Verve Pipe's Lou Musa just laid down some guitar work on a version of Alice In Chains' "Don't Follow" which is set to appear on the EP, when it is released some time in 2017. 

As for the show on the 30th, fans who are familiar with The Infinite Staircase know that anything is possible when seeing them live. In 2016 alone, the band were joined live by Corey Glover of Living Colour, Chris Caffery of Trans-Siberian Orchestra and Savatage and Fred Gorhau of The Wizards Of Winter to name a few.

Tickets available at Ticketmaster.
