FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH, PAPA ROACH Join Forces For Fall Tour; IN THIS MOMENT, FROM ASHES TO NEW To Support
May 19, 2015, 9 years ago
Five Finger Death Punch and Papa Roach have come together for the first time to co-headline North America arenas this fall, fueled by Monster Energy and produced by Frank Productions/NS2.
Larry Frank, CEO of Frank Productions/NS2 notes: “Five Finger Death Punch and Papa Roach are the two most dynamic live rock bands touring today. We can’t wait to blow away fans across the U.S. with a show this huge.”
In an innovative move, Five Finger Death Punch and Papa Roach actively involved the fans by giving them the opportunity to request the tour come to their city via a “demand campaign” housed here and here. An overwhelming 1.5 million people responded to the call to action and made their voices heard.
Says Zoltan Bathory (guitar) of Five Finger Death Punch: “This tour is shaping up to be the perfect storm. We are really good friends with Papa Roach so for years we've been talking about touring together and it’s finally coming together in a big way. Both 5fdp and Papa Roach are bands of the people - our fans are who propelled us to success. So what better way than to give the fans ownership in the tour? In the world of Wikipedia and Kickstarter where crowd funding and crowd sourcing has become the standard of community effort and the new way of making things happen this might quite possibly be the future of touring - you simply ask the fans where they want you to go”.
"We are super excited to be sharing the stage on this co-headliner with FFDP,” says Papa Roach vocalist, Jacoby Shaddix. “This will give Papa Roach the chance to put on the best, most epic live show to date. Our fans are going to be so stoked for these shows coming up. We seriously can't wait to get out on the road for this tour."For more info and details on Five Finger Death Punch and Papa Roach VIP package offerings, go here and here.

Coinciding with the tour announcement today, the bands also launched a special video about the tour which contains a pre-view to the first new single, “Jekyll And Hyde,” from Five Finger Death Punch’s forthcoming sixth full-length studio album, Got Your Six, to be released globally on August 28th.
