Disturbed has announced its plans for their Music As A Weapon IV tour, and they've recruited Killswitch Engage, Lacuna Coil, and Chimaira to be their openers as artists are still being booked. It will expand to an all day event with tattoo booths, freestyle motocross, BMX and Skate extreme sports athletes strutting their stuff. The tour kicks off March 20 and wraps up May 16 in Disturbed's hometown of Chicago. Tickets for the tour will go on sale as early as this weekend so check out the disturbed website for more info.
Guitarist Dan Donegan said in an interview a few months ago that Disturbed has been looking forward to this year's tour to showcase their new album, Indestructible.
"We're looking forward to getting back out and having a longer set time, doing a headlining tour to give us more of an ability to do more of the new stuff as well too, and just kind of change out whatever it is we... at any moment change out and play something different here or there."
The Music As A Weapon festival will begin at 2pm in each city. Specific tattoo artists, bands and extreme sports athletes for each city will be announced in the coming weeks.

yeah, I've never heard of something like that before
but now that you mention it... I saw them at Mayhem festival last year and down with the sickness was terrible, it was a great show, but he was singing terrible and completely out of tune
maybe all that screaming has finally damaged his voice...POSTED: 01/28/2009 - 04:44 pm / quote |

: I saw Disturbed a couple of years ago and they put on a great show, but I kinda lost interest after Indestructable, it was an ok album imo. But it would be cool to see Killswitch Engaged though.POSTED: 01/28/2009 - 10:21 pm / quote |

: Disturbed are just a real fun band to listen to, but Killswitch are so lame now and I don't know about the 2 other bands. If it's a decent price I might go, but it would be better if I liked the other bands. POSTED: 01/28/2009 - 11:36 pm / quote |
