Machine Head announce second leg to ‘Burn My Eyes’ 25th anniversary tour

MACHINE HEAD have announced further dates for their Burn My Eyes 25th anniversary tour!

After mass excitement surrounding the news that MACHINE HEAD would be touring across mainland Europe and the UK to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Burn My Eyes, today, the band have announced details surrounding the second leg of the tour!

The second massive run of dates kicks off in Zaragoza, Spain on April 19th, continuing across Portugal, Eastern Europe, Russia, Scandinavia, wrapping in the UK with a London show at the legendary Alexandra Palace on June 6th. A US leg is set to be announced soon.

Additional UK tour dates are as follows: 

Fri 5th – UK, LONDON, Alexandra Palace
Sat 6th – UK, BIRMINGHAM O2 Academy

Speaking about the second leg of the tour, band founder and visionary, Robb Flynn tells us, “while we all expected the first round of dates to do well, no one could have predicted the frankly mind-boggling attendance numbers with Paris selling out in an hour and London selling out in eight hours! We want everyone to have the opportunity to take part in this very special, once-in-a-lifetime-event, and as promised, we are bringing this around the globe well into Dec 2020. So stoked to bring this event to so many territories that we can’t always get to, and ending at Alexandra Palace will be monu-MENTAL!”

The Lord of the Low-End, Jared MacEachearn is equally looking forward to the run, saying, “lemme just say, you head cases are in for a massively heavy treat! These BME songs are sounding CRUSHING, and the vibe is great. OG head cases are gonna feel it like the first time, and all you other cats are gonna see where it all began!” Logan Mader adds, “Really looking forward to this tour and hitting all the markets we will miss on the first run. It’s gonna be amazing! I’ve never been to Greece or Russia and now I’ll have the chance to visit both!!” Chris Kontos echoes the sentiment, stating, “this is going to be amazing! Playing lots of countries I have never played before and some of my favorite places too. I’m very excited about going to Greece being GREEK!! Playing Russia I’m sure will be quite the adventure. Looking forward to rocking this out!!”
