Due to an overwhelmingly positive response, TESTAMENT has made additional VIP packages available for its upcoming North American headlining tour. The packages will be going on sale immediately, Fans are encouraged to get them soon, as VIP package sales will close seven days prior to the show day. Extra packages have been added to ALL dates. The tour kicks off May 2 in Seattle and also features UNEARTH and LAZARUS A.D.
"One of the great things about our upcoming tour is that we'll have these special VIP packages that connect us with the fans," said guitarist Alex Skolnick. "While we always try to say hello to as many folks as we can on tour, it can be difficult with the large crowds and general craziness at the shows. But this time, fans will have the option to come hang out with us via organized meet and greets. They can talk to us, get CDs and posters signed, take pictures etc., while those who are musicians can ask us questions and get advice for their bands. It's going to be fun performing but also getting to know so many of our fans up close and in person."
There are two types of VIP packages available: Meet-And-Greet Package and Hot Sound Package. The Meet-And-Greet Package includes a special meet-and-greet opportunity, access to the soundcheck, a ticket to the show, autographed poster, merchandise item, collectible laminate, personalized music skins, and more! The Hot Sound Package includes a ticket to the show, early entry into the venue, access to the sound check, autographed poster, merchandise item, collectible laminate and more.
"It goes without saying that I'm really psyched for the upcoming U.S. run," added guitarist Eric Peterson. "As headliners, we're finally able to bring fans the show they deserve, to support 'The Formation of Damnation'. I'm also really looking forward to meeting the fans who will be meeting up with us at the shows. Being on the road makes it difficult to really connect with the people who make our tours possible, so, I'm happy that we'll have the opportunity to interact with fans on a personal basis. Don't forget, my signature guitar is in stores too!"
