Devin Townsend recently revealed that he planned on playing some Strapping Young Lad stuff in 2020. At the time, he said "I'm gonna be touring everything, and that includes the Strapping stuff," which of course leaves room for there to be not-so-heavy stuff interspersed. Now in a series of tweets about those 2020 shows, Townsend confirms that he'll be getting heavy as a really heavy thing once more in 2020, saying "no messing around, it’s going to be crushing and immensely fun :) bringing the whole catalog together finally… just you wait:))."
So yeah, maybe prepare yourselves for imminent destruction.
So for the first two tours, I’ve put together something I’ve *always* wanted to do: 10 players onstage, my personal choice of music, amazing production, improvisation and ABSOLUTELY devastating players. Musical in ways I’ve never been able to be before, every night unique.
…For the summer festivals, it’s going to be a different vibe altogether. A new group of people, and finally HEAVY again :) no messing around, it’s going to be *crushing* and immensely fun :) bringing the whole catalog together finally… just you wait:))
Then after the summer, there’s a bunch more surprises in store for live, I want every tour to be a unique and amazing experience. I’m finally able to do this all now, so I’m not letting this opportunity slip away :)) News on all that when it’s time
