Grammy-award winning hard rockers Slipknot announced their first U.S. headline tour Wednesday in support of their #1 album All Hope Is Gone. The tour will hit 33 cities across the country, including San Diego.
“2009 is the 10 year anniversary of the world’s first taste of this band. To celebrate we are coming back out with a killer tour, a couple great bands and the same ferocity with which we attack life,” said Front man Corey Taylor. “We want all of our maggots to come and celebrate with us, because if it wasn’t for you we wouldn’t have been here for 10 years. Get ready for chaos!”
A special iTunes presale will start on December 3 and be open to those who took part in the band’s digital album presale earlier this year. Internet presales via Ticketmaster, will start on December 5, and the majority of dates will go on sale December 6th including the March 8 San Diego date at Cox Arena.
The band has also launched a new website to coincide with the launch of the tour.
