FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH/SHINEDOWN Co-Headlining Tour, SIXX:A.M. To Support
FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH and SHINEDOWN are partnering to co-headline a fall arena rock tour — an epic trek that kicks off on October 18 in Little Rock, Arkansas and crisscrosses North America through December.
The tour is also highlighted by special guest SIXX:A.M. and U.K. newcomers AS LIONS, featuring Austin Dickinson (son of IRON MAIDEN‘s Bruce Dickinson), will round out the supporting lineup.
Tickets are available for purchase via Ticketmaster.com.
The bands have partnered to donate $1 from each ticket sold on the tour to four hand-picked charitable organizations close to their hearts: FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH chose the Badge of Honor Memorial Foundation, SHINEDOWN selected MusiCares, SIXX:A.M. will support Jada Pinkett Smith‘s anti-human trafficking organization Don’t Sell Bodies, and AS LIONS will donate to Make A Wish America. In addition to the $1 donation per ticket, the bands have teamed up with Crowdrise to give fans the option to enter for the chance to win VIP tickets plus a meet-and-greet by choosing to donate an additional $5 at the time of purchase. Fans who don’t live in one of the cities on the tour, but would still like to support the efforts, can visit Crowdrise to donate $5 and be entered for a chance to win a flyaway to the show of their choice plus a meet-and-greet with all four bands.
Coinciding with the announcement of the fall tour, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH is also celebrating the platinum certification of its 2009 album “War Is The Answer”, as well as the gold certification of its 2013 album “The Wrong Side Of Heaven And The Righteous Side Of Hell, Vol. 1”.
SHINEDOWN recently launched “Asking For It” — the third single off of the multiplatinum rock band’s current album, “Threat To Survival” — with an electrifying performance on ABC‘s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”. “Asking For It” follows the album’s back-to-back #1 singles “Cut The Cord” and “State Of My Head”, and looks to build upon the band’s already record-setting tally of 20 chart-topping singles.
