Machine Head @ Zwolle en Antwerpen, augustus 2014
Machine Head are proud to announce the first round of tour dates in 2014 for the UK and Europe. The 15 date "Killers & Kings Tour" will serve as an album primer for more dates in Nov./Dec., but more importantly will hit numerous cities that Machine Head hasn't headlined in for over a decade, or in several cases, never headlined, or even played, at all.
Says vocalist / guitarist Robb Flynn, "In keeping with the intimate club tour-vibe we are doing in the USA this summer, for our first time ever, we decided to blow off 90% of all Euro summer festivals, and hit the nooks and crannies of the UK and Europe as well. We will be doing no major cities in any territories throughout Europe and the UK for this first leg of 2014.
No London, no Berlin, etc, and instead focusing on the die-hard Machine Head fans that who don't often get the chance to see us because the travel is too far or too costly to get the big cities.
I remember when we were out with Metallica doing festivals a few years ago, we played in a small out-of-the-way city in Denmark called Aarhus, we'd never played there let alone, ever even heard of the fucking place. We were all a bit grumbly before the show, and you know what? It ended up being one of the funnest shows we've ever done. Doing shows like this, it creates an energy, it creates a bond, something unbreakable, and it is really fucking fun. It's Machine Head without all the big production, the bells and whistles, stripped down and raw.
What will be really cool is that in the UK, we've never done a club tour, it happened so fast for us there that other than a handful of epically insane, wildly drunken Ten Ton Hammer club shows, we've only played bigger halls, so we are really looking forward to giving our fans something special there. Plus, we've been hearing from our Scottish fans for decades that we need to get to Edinburgh!!! So finally, 21 years into our existence, we're coming, and we're ready to fucking plunder Scotland!!!!

Re: Machine Head @ Zwolle en Antwerpen, augustus 2014
in Antwerpen gaat het 38 euro kosten, overigens.
De prijs voor Zwolle is me nog niet bekend.

Re: Machine Head @ Zwolle en Antwerpen, augustus 2014
Aanwezig in Hedon! Volgens podiuminfo.nl zijn de kaarten voor Zwolle 25 euro, goed prijsje lijkt me.
Machine Fucking Head!

Re: Machine Head @ Zwolle en Antwerpen, augustus 2014
o ja inmiddels is het op de site van Hedon toegevoegd. 25 euro, inderdaad. valt nog mee, vooral in vergelijking met Antwerpen.

Re: Machine Head @ Zwolle en Antwerpen, augustus 2014
dan geef ik toch de voorkeur aan Down, dat die avond in Uden speelt.
laatste keer MH was zeer matig (evenals het laatste album)

Hier ben ik zeker bij..
Re: Machine Head @ Zwolle en Antwerpen, augustus 2014
Ik zat te twijfelen of ik naar Down in Uden of Amsterdam ga, maar die beslissing heeft Machine Head nu voor mij genomen.Latebloomer schreef:dan geef ik toch de voorkeur aan Down, dat die avond in Uden speelt.

Re: Machine Head @ Zwolle en Antwerpen, augustus 2014
Zal wel in no time uitverkocht zijn..
Re: Machine Head @ Zwolle en Antwerpen, augustus 2014
Dat is wel een flink prijsverschil ja, beetje jammer.Took schreef:o ja inmiddels is het op de site van Hedon toegevoegd. 25 euro, inderdaad. valt nog mee, vooral in vergelijking met Antwerpen.
It is my job as a human being to let my ignorance take control
Re: Machine Head @ Zwolle en Antwerpen, augustus 2014
Ik heb maar meteen kaartjes gekocht voor Zwolle. Hedon is zo groot nog niet (850 man), kan me voorstellen dat het gauw uitverkocht raakt.
