Multi-million selling metal legends W.A.S.P have announced a string of dates for a UK tour in September.
Led by the infamous Blackie Lawless, W.A.S.P have been alarming the more conservative members of society for nearly three decades now. Twenty Nine years ago yesterday, on September 21st 1982, W.A.S.P. played their first show at the Troubadour in Los Angeles, today they have confirmed plans to hit the road for their “30 Years of Thunder” anniversary Tour starting in the United Kingdom and continuing worldwide!
The band promises that this World Tour will be the biggest spectacle W.A.S.P. have ever created. The two hour show will consist of three parts. A one hour set containing songs from the first four albums. The second set will be a 25 minute shortened version of 'The Crimson Idol' complete with the movie accompaniment. A third set will consist of material from the new studio album, older material and everything in-between. This show will see multiple video screens, pyrotechnics, and elements from the early W.A.S.P. shows and Blackie’s moving microphone stand “Elvis”!
