SUMMARY:W.A.S.P. - 1984 TO HEADLESS with SPECIAL GUEST KK'S PRIEST
DESCRIPTION:W.A.S.P.: Few Bands in the history of Rock N’ Roll have ever incited the love\, the hate\, the raw emotional effect this Band has had on the world. From the very beginning\, in the small venues of Los Angeles California\, and later to the numerous countries worldwide that banned these Winged Assassins from performing live\, the Band’s unique style of Shock and Rock caused Religious organizations\, Local City Councils\, Parliaments\, and the Washington D.C. Senate to hold hearings in an effort to bar this group from selling records and trashing stages everywhere they played. The band’s founding member\, frontman Blackie Lawless\, has led the group as its lead vocalist and primary songwriter since its beginning. His unique brand of visual\, social and political comment took the group to worldwide heights and sold millions of records alongside a legacy of sold out shows across the globe for 4 decades. Hear favorites including “I Wanna Be Somebody\,” “L.O.V.E. machine\,” “Blind In Texas\,” ” Wild Child” and so many MORE! \nKK’s Priest: You can’t keep a heavy metal legend down… Although it’s been over a dozen years since guitarist and songwriter K.K. Downing departed Judas Priest\, the iconic band he co-founded and played with for 40 years\, he was never really going to retire. It was only a matter of time before he reclaimed the spotlight. K.K. Downing has had metal coursing through his veins from the beginning\, starting in the Midlands region of England where Judas Priest was born. He compellingly chronicled his life odyssey in his 2018 autobiography\, and his recent induction into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame further secures his legacy as a pioneering musician\, songwriter and guitarist.\nAs a founding member of the classic Judas Priest line-up\, Downing helped lay the foundation for the heavy metal genre as a whole. His distinct style of playing is easily identifiable\, he was part of a six-string duo that complemented and contrasted each other\, and they would progress to new levels of excitement. He has taken that ethos and applied it to KK’s Priest with impassioned results. \nBuy Now

From the very beginning\, in the small venues of Los Angeles California\, and later to the numerous countries worldwide that banned these Winged Assassins from performing live\, the Band’s unique style of Shock and Rock caused Religious organizations\, Local City Councils\, Parliaments\, and the Washington D.C. Senate to hold hearings in an effort to bar this group from selling records and trashing stages everywhere they played. The band’s founding member\, frontman Blackie Lawless\, has led the group as its lead vocalist and primary songwriter since its beginning. His unique brand of visual\, social and political comment took the group to worldwide heights and sold millions of records alongside a legacy of sold out shows across the globe for 4 decades. Hear favorites including “I Wanna Be Somebody\,” “L.O.V.E. machine\,” “Blind In Texas\,” ” Wild Child” and so many MORE! \nKK’s Priest: You can’t keep a heavy metal legend down… Although it’s been over a dozen years since guitarist and songwriter K.K. Downing departed Judas Priest\, the iconic band he co-founded and played with for 40 years\, he was never really going to retire. It was only a matter of time before he reclaimed the spotlight. K.K. Downing has had metal coursing through his veins from the beginning\, starting in the Midlands region of England where Judas Priest was born. He compellingly chronicled his life odyssey in his 2018 autobiography\, and his recent induction into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame further secures his legacy as a pioneering musician\, songwriter and guitarist.\nAs a founding member of the classic Judas Priest line-up\, Downing helped lay the foundation for the heavy metal genre as a whole. His distinct style of playing is easily identifiable\, he was part of a six-string duo that complemented and contrasted each other\, and they would progress to new levels of excitement. He has taken that ethos and applied it to KK’s Priest with impassioned results. \nBuy Now

SUMMARY:BIG HEAD TODD & THE MONSTERS
DESCRIPTION:In this life\, very few friendships withstand the test of time. Naturally\, people go their separate ways and chase their own dreams. As rare as it may be for friendships to last a lifetime\, it might be even rarer for a band to stick together for the long haul. For close to four decades\, the members of Big Head Todd and The Monsters—Todd Park Mohr [vocals\, guitar\, keys\, sax\, harmonica]\, Brian Nevin [drums]\, Rob Squires [bass\, vocals]\, and Jeremy Lawton [keyboards\, lap pedal/steel guitar\, vocals]—have continued to both throw down in the studio and light up stages worldwide. Rallying around a core vision\, the platinum-selling Colorado quartet kick out the kind of blues-drenched rock ‘n’ roll bangers that make you want to rev the engine a little louder\, sing along like no one’s looking\, and live a little freer.  Hits include “Bittersweet\,” “Broken Hearted Savior\,” “It’s Alright\,” “Please Don’t Tell Her”and MORE! \nBuy Now

SUMMARY:ROBIN TROWER - US TOUR\, FALL 2026 with SPECIAL GUEST DAVID MAIDA 
DESCRIPTION:Even now\, as he reaches his eighth decade\, with a lifetime of accolades and a seminal body of music behind him\, Robin Trower is still chasing the biggest high he knows. It always starts the same way\, with a road-scuffed Fender Stratocaster and a revved-up Marshall amplifier\, those skillful fingers exploring the fretboard until a riff sticks and a new song ignites. Trower stands on the cusp of a whirlwind year that will see him put down heavy miles across America and the UK. At the grand vintage of 80\, however\, this latest tour represents a mere stretch of the long road travelled. In his mind’s eye\, Trower can still see his Southend-on-Sea childhood in the ’50s and feel the formative influence of guitar players from across the water. Trower’s earliest memory of that rebel movement is hearing Elvis sideman Scotty Moore. Next came a life-changing spin of a friend’s imported single\, which happened to be B.B. King’s 3 O’ Clock Blues. Albert King’s Crosscut Saw\, Jimi Hendrix’s Machine Gun\, James Brown’s Live At The Apollo: all of them informed Trower’s musical personality as he made his first moves in 1959 with R&B hopefuls The Paramounts. By 1974\, Trower was a major star in the land whose music had inspired him and was influencing future luminaries like Steve Lukather\, Metallica and countless more. Stick a pin in his catalogue over the past  decade alone and you’ll find projects from 2020’s United State Of Mind supergroup alongside Maxi Priest to the pairing with New York vocalist Sari Schorr on 2023’s Joyful Sky. \nDavid Maida is an accomplished music industry professional with over 30 years of experience booking\, branding and promoting countless major recording artists including some of the biggest names in music. \nBuy Now

SUMMARY:Y&T
DESCRIPTION:Before Mötley Crüe\, before RATT\, even before there was a Metallica\, Y&T was slogging away in sweaty rock clubs around America. When the band formed in the early 1970s\, little did they know they would set the standard for hard rock bands that trailed. Many of the biggest acts of the ’80s became popular opening for headliners Y&T—and cut their teeth on the band\, as evidenced by the Y&T mentions in tell-all books by acts such as Metallica and Mötley Crüe. Born in Oakland\, California\, Y&T is one of the San Francisco Bay Area’s own innovators of the hard rock sound. Whether performing to a festival crowd of fifty-thousand or in an intimate nightclub\, Y&T’s high-energy set and passionate performances still captivate legions of fans around the globe\, proving Y&T’s music timeless. Originally formed as Yesterday and Today\, the initial powerhouse quartet—featuring Dave Meniketti (lead guitar/lead vocals)\, Phil Kennemore (bass)\, Leonard Haze (drums)\, and Joey Alves (rhythm guitar)—tore through the ’70s and ’80s with their own brand of hard rock. After two ’70s albums on London Records\, they shortened their name to Y&T and released eight albums on A&M in the ’80s. Two more albums with Geffen Records marked an era of change with Jimmy DeGrasso (Alice Cooper\, Suicidal Tendencies\, Megadeth) on drums and Stef Burns (Alice Cooper\, Berlin\, Huey Lewis) on guitar. With a discography of 18 albums\, three greatest hits collections\, plus a boxed set\, Y&T has sold over four million albums since their 1974 inception. The band’s most recent single I’m Coming Home has climbed to roughly 1.5 million views on YouTube. Y&T received extensive airplay with hits such as Forever\, Rescue Me\, Mean Streak\, Don’t Stop Runnin’\, and Summertime Girls—which played in heavy rotation on MTV. Y&T songs have been featured in a multitude of movies and television shows\, including Real Genius\, Out of Bounds\, Baywatch\, and Hunter. After five top 100 albums\, songs that tipped into the 40s\, two Bammie Awards\, and many international television appearances\, Y&T’s hits are still played on VH1 Classic and classic rock radio stations worldwide. With the passing of Kennemore\, Haze\, and Alves\, it’s Meniketti who carries on the legacy that is Y&T. Y&T continues to tour the world\, featuring the dynamic original frontman Dave Meniketti (lead guitar/lead vocals)\, John Nymann (guitar/vocals)\, Aaron Leigh (bass/vocals)\, and Mike Vanderhule (drums/vocals)\, playing songs that span the band’s five-decade career and including all the hits and fan favorites.

SUMMARY:MUSHROOMHEAD/ FEAR FACTORY co-headline of SOULS OF A NEW MACHINE TOUR with SPECIAL GUEST NINE TREASURES
DESCRIPTION:MUSHROOMHEAD: Mushroomhead – are one of the most unique and adventurous alternative metal bands working today. Known for their stunningly theatrical live show and artsy masks\, this innovative band has forged new ground in the rock world and influenced many other bands to push the envelope and bring art into rock. Formed in the early-1990s in Cleveland Ohio\, the band’s combination of metal\, rock and atmospheric elements has struck a chord with thousands of fans worldwide. Mushroomhead have been performing incognito since 1993\, when drummer Skinny founded the band. The band was meant to be a side-project so they wore masks to go unrecognized\, but after only a few shows they developed a rabid and loyal fan base in Cleveland. Influences range from the driving rhythms and breakneck turns of Pantera to the dark melodies of Faith No More\, to the atmospheric stylings of Pink Floyd\, but all done in Mushroomhead style. Notable songs include “Beautiful Stories for Ugly Children\,” “Sun Doesn’t Rise\,” “Kill Tomorrow” and “Qwerty” to name a few. \nFEAR FACTORY: One can’t overstate the size of the Fear Factory boot print on the neck of heavy metal. Unleashing influential albums with devastating anthems for over 30 years\, Fear Factory is widely recognized as both crucial and innovative in extreme metal circles. They perfected an explosive blend of staccato paint-stripping riffs\, industrial-tinged drums\, electronic flourishes\, and a scream/sing dichotomy\, all of which became staples in heavy music\, ever since the group first emerged in L.A. Fear Factory has headlined major festivals; earned several awards from the international sales charts; toured with legends like Black Sabbath\, Slayer\, Iron Maiden\, and Metallica; performed at three Ozzfests; and influenced generations of bands who achieved multiplatinum success.\nThey toured with Slayer and on the Ozzfest mainstage. They headlined in Europe and North America\, where they took System Of A Down and Static-X (featuring future bassist Tony Compos) as support. \nNINE TREASURES: Nine Treasures are a unique combination of heavy metal and traditional Mongolian instrumentation. Guitars\, bass\, and drums collide with string instruments including the balalaika and the morin khuur (horsehead fiddle)\, resulting in a sonic kaleidoscope that follows no set template. Nine Treasures move easily from a straight-up headbanging style to the more atmospheric progressive style. \nBuy Now

The Vampire Circus is a journey that takes audiences into an immersive experience\, plunging guests into a deep hypnotic state while “breaking the fourth wall.” With Vampire Circus\, audiences are fully integrated into what is happening in front of them\, surrounding them\, and at times “inside” of them. The Vampire Circus will delight the senses and deliver the unexpected. As the moon comes out\, the magical mystique of the Vampire World begins. Come meet the Vampires. We will leave the lights off for you!! \nBuy Now
