MEGADETH And LAMB OF GOD Announce Rescheduled Dates For ‘The Metal Tour Of The Year’

Lamb of God Megadeth

MEGADETH and LAMB OF GOD have announced the rescheduled dates for “The Metal Tour Of The Year”. Joining them, as previously planned, will be special guests TRIVIUM and IN FLAMES, heralding the long-awaited return to the stage for these bands, who are every bit as excited about these historic and not-to-be-missed shows as fans are.

Rescheduled tour will now kick off on Friday, August 20 in Austin, Texas and hit a further 26 cities before wrapping in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada on Saturday, October 2.

All previously purchased tickets for any of the rescheduled dates listed below will be valid for the new date. For any cancelled dates, refunds will automatically be processed at your point of purchase.

Tickets are available at this location.

Speaking on the long-awaited announcement of the rescheduled run, MEGADETH mainman Dave Mustaine says: “Can you hear that sound of armies on the march — of destruction on the horizon? That’s this tour, coming for you. We cannot wait to return to the stage and I promise you you do NOT want to miss these shows. You’re not going to know what hit you!”

LAMB OF GOD frontman Randy Blythe adds: Frontman Randy Blythe states: “It’s been far too long since we got together to do our thing. By ‘we,’ I mean bands, road crew, bus drivers, truck drivers, local venue staff, vendors, audience, parking lot attendants, the freaking janitors — the whole damn enchilada. ALL OF US. TOGETHER. Everyone has been waiting, but the time has come to put the puzzle back together. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever been more ready to hit the road with LAMB OF GOD. See y’all in a few months with MEGADETHTRIVIUM and IN FLAMES. Over a year with no live music? These shows are gonna be INSANE…”
