Symphony X and Overkill Announce Co-Headlining Tour

Symphony X and Overkill will hit the road together for a North American tour starting in September. And while co-headlining tours are often that in name only, these two bands are gonna take turns closing the show, so that one group isn’t the “real” star of the trek (although, if you wanna be super petty about it, Symphony X are actually closing thirteen shows, but Overkill are only closing twelve). I’m not quite sure how they decided who’d close which show, since the schedule doesn’t call for a simple regular alternation. I’m guessing it’s by market, although that doesn’t quite explain why Overkill get to close the New York show (both bands are from New Jersey).
