As first hinted on July 6, BLABBERMOUTH.NET can now exclusively reveal that 1991's original American "Clash of the Titans" lineup — SLAYER, MEGADETH and ANTHRAX — will hit the road together once again on leg two of the "American Carnage" tour. This trek kicks off September 24 at Verizon Wireless Theatre in Dallas, Texas and will play 20 dates, including New York's Nassau Coliseum, concluding at Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles on October 21.
On leg two of "American Carnage", MEGADETH will continue to roar through its landmark 1990 album "Rust in Peace" from front to back, while SLAYER will rip the roof off by performing its much-lauded "Seasons in the Abyss" album, which was also released in 1990. ANTHRAX recently welcomed back singer Joey Belladonna, who defined the band during its heyday, and now permanently back in the band, will be front-and-center.
A special pre-sale will launch this Wednesday, July 14, and fans should log on to Slayer.net, Megadeth.com or Anthrax.com to obtain the special code needed for the pre-sale, and then go to Ticketmaster.com (KnoxvilleTickets.com for the Knoxville date) to purchase tickets. The public on-sale will begin July 23 in most markets.
In the spirit of beating the recession, there will be pre-sale discounts on all tickets in most markets (see below for more details), and if that's not enough, a limited amount of $10 tickets will be available in many cities. Log on to any of the bands' web sites or on to Ticketmaster's site for those details.
But wait, there's even more. For leg two of the "American Carnage" tour, MEGADETH has teamed up with ILoveAllAccess.com to provide fans with VIP experiences including priority venue access, meet-and-greets, parties, exclusive gifts and more. Logging on to Megadeth.com will provide those details. Plus, fans who purchase their tickets online at either Slayer.net or Ticketmaster.com will receive a free download of the live audio track "War Ensemble", set to be included on SLAYER's forthcoming, as-yet-unannounced "Live Intrusion" DVD release.
SLAYER, MEGADETH and ANTHRAX will kick off the second leg of the "American Carnage" tour on the heels of the historic "Big Four" Sonisphere festival concerts they played with METALLICA in seven European cities this summer. The dates marked the first time that these four bands — acknowledged as the most influential bands of the thrash genre — had shared a concert bill.
The original "Clash of the Titans" tour united the three forces of thrash metal for the entire summer of 1991, with then-little known ALICE IN CHAINS serving as the opener. This tour, which falls under the "American Carnage" banner, isn't rewriting history, it's writing a whole new chapter of head-banging history that is sure to delight fans new and old.
MEGADETH and SLAYER return to North America late this month to co-headline the East Coast "Canadian Carnage" tour, and then starting August 11, the first leg of the "American Carnage" tour" (dates below) with TESTAMENT as special guest. The tour was originally scheduled for a winter 2010 run, but was postponed when SLAYER bassist/vocalist Tom Araya was forced to undergo neck surgery. But as is the case for anything good in life, this tour will be well worth the wait.
