BROOKINGS – As Godsmack and Shinedown gear up for their co-headlining summer amphitheater tour, the two multi-platinum rock groups have revealed additional concert dates keeping them on the road together into the fall.
Newly added dates – featuring rock band Asking Alexandria – include an Oct. 2 stop in Brookings at the Swiftel Center.
Tickets for the newly announced fall tour dates are available to the general public starting at 10 a.m. Friday, with prices starting at $39.50.
Tickets will be available at the Swiftel Center box office, charge by phone at 800-745-3000 or online at Ticketmaster.com.
The tour will reach over 40 cities in total. Both bands are touring in support of their new chart-topping albums: Godsmack’s When Legends Rise and Shinedown’s Attention Attention.
“We really believe this could be a great moment in our band’s career, and we plan on running on the road until at least fall of 2019,” Sully Erna of Godsmack said. “We love the guys in Shinedown, and we all go way back. There is a very strong mutual respect between our camps and we feel that this tour is going to be a must see.”
“It’s all about impact and making a statement,” said Brent Smith, Shinedown’s lead singer. “We are creating a show for the fans that is powerful, passionate and sonically inspiring. The audience has given us a platform to be ourselves and create something spectacular.”
Godsmack’s When Legends Rise is the band’s seventh studio album and its first in four years. The 11-song collection, fueled by the No. 1 Mainstream Rock Song and video “Bulletproof” plus the title track “When Legends Rise,” entered the Billboard Top 200 album chart in the top 10 (No. 8), with four No. 1 placements on other charts: Top Rock Albums, Top Hard Music Albums, Top Independent Albums and Top Alternative Albums.
Shinedown is at the top of the charts with its critically acclaimed sixth studio album Attention Attention. The album simultaneously hit #1 on Billboard’s Alternative, Top Rock and Hard Rock Albums Charts and debuted Top 5 on the Billboard 200 and No. 1 on iTunes.
