Anniversary tour:
Building on their wildly popular ‘An Evening With…’ format, these not-to-be-missed shows will be a three-hour musical extravaganza, comprised of two parts:

Part I – will feature a battery of MACHINE HEAD’s modern classics, such as ‘Imperium,’ ‘Halo,’ and, ‘The Blood, The Sweat, The Tears,’ featuring frontman/guitarist Robb Flynn and bassist Jared MacEachern performing alongside two, soon-to-be-announced ragers on guitar and drums.

Part II – will feature the Bay Area band’s classic debut album, »Burn My Eyes« played in its entirety for the first time ever. And if somehow this historical event could not be monumental enough, taking the stage for this part of the set will be »Burn My Eyes«-era alumni and MACHINE HEAD’s original drummer Chris Kontos and original guitarist Logan Mader.
