STONE SOUR, LACUNA COIL and SHADOWS FALL wil lteam up for the latest installment of the Jägermeister Music Tour, set to kick off March 23 in St. Paul, Minnesota.
"This has been something we have been looking forward to for a very long time," says STONE SOUR vocalist Corey Taylor. "Having done this tour before, I can honestly say it's like nothing I've ever experienced. It's our time, and we're coming for you."
"It's about time!" says LACUNA COIL's Cristina Scabbia about being part of the Jäger Tour. "It'll be a blast, and you guys CAN'T miss it cause it's gonna be the tour of the year! See you all there… spread the word…and horns up, my friends!"
Brian Fair of SHADOWS FALL says, "After spending most of the past year trapped in the practice space and the studio, everyone in SHADOWS FALL is extremely excited to finally be getting back on the road! We plan on releasing a year of pent up energy on stage and unleashing a few new songs from our upcoming album, 'Threads of Life'. We are really looking forward to teaming up with our good friends in STONE SOUR and LACUNA COIL for an amazing tour. Time to put the Jägermeister on ice and line up the shots because its time to party with SHADOWS FALL!"
Rick Zeiler, Director of Marketing and Brand Development for Jägermeister, comments, "We as a company have a lot of respect for hard rock and metal music and also a lot of respect for STONE SOUR and what they have accomplished. We have worked with both LACUNA COIL and SHADOWS FALL for many years through our band sponsorship program, and both of these bands know how to represent Jägermeister. It's nice to have family as part of one of our music tours! With this lineup and Jägermeister's signature support, this tour will be one of the biggest of the season!"
The tour will rock through May and each show will be rounded out with a local Jägermeister band.
For about 30 bucks, fans will get the chance to see some of the biggest acts in rock and receive some of the sweetest swag around, including great Jägermeister prizes and giveaways like the Jägermeister compilation CDs with live and unreleased tracks from Jägermeister bands as well as plenty of Jägermeister shirts, hats, and more.
