W.A.S.P. announce UK tour

W.A.S.P. have announced a headlining UK tour!

Set for July and September this year, the tour will see the legendary Los Angeles-based heavy/glam metal band touring across the UK to celebrate the 40th anniversary of 1984’s self-titled album.

The tour, titled Album ONE Alive, will see the band perform the album in its entirety alongside additional classics from the band’s vast back catalogue.

Support for the September UK shows comes from ARMORED SAINT. Tickets for the tour are available now and can be purchased here.

Speaking about the tour, vocalist Blackie Lawless shares, “this is the tour that showcases the album that started the long, long undying bond between the band and to all the fans in your countries where all our international success first began 40 years ago. It was an angry record made by an angry band. It was a record that not only reflected the attitude of the band members who made it, but also a record that reflected its time.

This tour showcases for the first time, that landmark first album, played in its entirety, from top to bottom, most likely never to be repeated ever again. So be there and see these Winged Assassins, and witness this once in a lifetime event.”

Tour dates are as follows: 

20/07 – UEA, Norwich
25/07 – O2 Academy, Glasgow
27/07 – Rock City, Nottingham
26/09 – Newcastle O2 City Hall
27/09 – O2 Victoria Warehouse, Manchester
28/09 – Eventim Apollo Hammersmith, London
