Ice Nine Kills Promise One ‘Hell Of A Summer’ with U.S. Headlining Tour
With the summer just around the corner, U.S. metalheads have an abundance of options when it comes to upcoming concerts and where they spend their hard-earned cash. This morning, massively successful Massachusetts-based band Ice Nine Kills announced a headlining U.S. tour that’ll be sure to be insanely popular.
Set to kick off on August 10 in Waukee, Iowa and coming to a close on September 13 in Worcester, Massachusetts for Silver Scream Con, the ‘Hell Of A Summer’ tour will see the run of dates hit 19 venues before it’s done. Throughout its run, the show will include supporting acts Dayseeker, Kim Dracula, The Funeral Portrait, Mest, and A Loss For Words, though exactly who will be at which date depends on the supporting acts’ availability. You can check the list of dates below to see who will be playing where.
Speaking of the tour itself, Ice Nine Kills vocalist Spencer Charnas expressed a whole lot of enthusiasm for what’s in store for future ticketholders.
“The HELL OF A SUMMER TOUR will be a celebration of all things INK — past, present, and future.
“It’s an eclectic bill, and having MEST on some of the shows is a particularly full-circle moment for me. As many Psychos will remember, I formed the band after seeing Goldfinger and MEST in Worcester 25 years ago.
“The date is so important to me that I have it tattooed behind my ear.
“The tour culminates in a sure-to-be historic performance at the DCU Center, where I experienced some of my first arena shows as a kid, including the Family Values Tour with our current tourmates, Limp Bizkit, and home of the Silver Scream Con.
“The HELL OF A SUMMER TOUR’s last stop, at the Silver Scream Con, will also feature some New England punk rock royalty as a very special guest.”
Tickets will be on artist pre-sale to Ice Nine Kills fans using the ‘Psychos Only’ app starting at 11 a.m. ET today, with additional pre-sales taking place throughout the week. Tickets will go on sale to the general public this May at 10 a.m. local time.
