Guitarist Stef Burns (Y&T;, ALICE COOPER) and drummer Matt Laug (SLASH'S SNAKEPIT) are due to tour Europe with Italian rockstar and songwriter VASCO ROSSI in May.
The Vasco Europe Indoor Live in Concert tour kicked off last October with tens of indoor dates in Italy, and is due to touch major European venues this month.

Rossi's band also features guitarists Maurizio Solieri, Claudio "Il Gallo" Golinelli (bass), Alberto "Lupo Maremmano" Rocchetti (keyboards), Andrea "Cucchia" Innesto (trumpet, background vocals), Frank Nemola (programming, trumpet, background vocals) and Clara Moroni (background vocals).
This is the first European tour of Vasco Rossi since 1997.
Burns joined forces with Rossi back in 1993, while Laug has been hired in 2007.
Rossi’s new single, which already reached number one in Italy, is a "revisited cover" of RADIOHEAD's 'Creep'. The new song is called 'Ad Ogni Costo' (At any cost) and the new lyrics are a free and unrelated interpretation of the original music in Italian. Check it out here.
