MACHINE HEAD kündigen Europa-Tournee an

MACHINE HEAD werden im kommenden Februar ihre exklusive Headliner-Tour “An Evening With MACHINE HEAD” starten - Keine Support-Bands, keine lokalen Anheizer, lediglich 2 Stunden Schädelspaltender Metal-Hymnen, Singalongs, atmosphärischen Stücken - einfach nur MACHINE HEAD.

"We’re doing ‘An Evening With’ MACHINE HEAD. Meaning: it’ll just be us, folks,” so Gitarrist/Sänger Robb Flynn.  “We are really excited about playing longer sets, throwing in some deep cuts, and just having it be our own world. We did this in the U.S. and eastern Europe recently and it’s done amazingly well. Fans seem to really love the "Evening With…" format for a band like us who has a long-standing and diverse catalog.  While the sets vary from night to night, there were a couple nights on the last run where we reached the 2 hour and 40 minute mark. It was crazy! We could have played all night, the crowd was so insane!!”

Zu der Entscheidung, während des »Bloodstone & Diamonds«-Tour-Zyklusses ausschließlich eigene Shows zu spielen, sowie nicht länger auf Festivals aufzutreten, erklärt Flynn: "We’re not trying to have a good time with a bunch of people who don’t know who we are. If MACHINE HEAD throws a party, big or small, we don’t want a bunch of ‘strangers’ there. This is about us and you guys, the die-hards, the Head Cases, The Fucking Undesirables! We don’t care about the others out there. We’re here and we’re not going anywhere. If those people want to be a part of this, they know where to find us. So for the time being, and maybe ‘forever’, we’re done reaching out for them."
