Metal Tour of the Year Returns for 2022
Metalheads rejoice! Megadeth, Lamb of God, Trivium, and In Flames have announced a 2022 leg for their “Metal Tour of the Year”. The package’s original dates were in 2020 and postponed until last summer.
“The ‘Metal Tour of The Year’ is exactly what it sounds like – a night of some of the best heavy metal bands in the world – live and loud. Anyone who came to a show last year knows what I mean, only this one’s going to be even better. Do not miss out,” says Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine.
The full band lineup includes a trove of metal bass heroes: Megadeth’s James LoMenzo, Lamb of God’s John Campbell, Trivium’s Paolo Gregoletto, and In Flames’ Bryce Paul.
The tour is scheduled to kick off in Las Vegas on April 9th and criss-cross the United States through May 15th, where it will end in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
