DISTURBED ANNOUNCES MUSIC AS A WEAPON WITH KILLSWITCH, LACUN

Disturbed has announced an extensive Music As A Weapon tour and festival, with openers Killswitch Engage and Lacuna Coil among others.

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.
