Metal legends Machine Head have announced details of a very special March 2016 tour.
Titled ‘An Evening With Machine Head’, there will be no support acts, just two unadulterated hours of Machine Head ‘anthems, deep album cuts, sing-a-longs and haunting atmospheric pieces.’
They play the following shows:
MARCH 2016 Norwich - Wed 2nd Nottingham Rock City Thu 3rd Belfast Limelight - Sat 5th Dublin Olympia - Sun 6th Manchester Academy -Tue 8th Cardiff Great Hall - Thu 10th London Hammersmith Apollo - Fri 11th Glasgow O2 Academy - Sat 12th
Tickets go on sale from Kerrang! Radio Tickets at 10am on Friday 16th October.
Guitarist/vocalist Robb Flynn enthuses. “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 US and eastern Europe recently and it’s worked amazingly well.
“Fans seem to really love the 'Evening With…' format for a band like us who has a long-standing and diverse catalogue. 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!!”
Speaking about having no support acts, Robb added: "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 F***ing 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."
