Alice Cooper is well-known for his theatrical stage shows, combining elements of horror, shock rock and classic heavy metal. His extensive catalogue includes classic hits such as “No More Mr. Nice Guy”, “Poison” and “School’s Out”. While Rob Zombie has similarly made a name for himself with his unique blend of horror-infused metal and shock n’ roll, with hits like “Dragula” and “Living Dead Girl”.

The tour will bring both artists together with Rob Zombie again for the first time since last year’s 2022 “Freaks On Parade” tour with nu-metal tyrants Mudvayne. Now fellow rockers can look forward to a dynamic mix of classic hits and new music from both Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper. The tour will also feature special surprises throughout the night, giving fans an unforgettable experience.

Rob Zombie is best known for his horror-inspired lyrics and heavy metal sound, while Alice Cooper’s live theatrical shock antics scared the nation. But Mr. Cooper soon became revered as one of the most influential figures in rock history. Together, they are sure to deliver an intense performance that will keep audiences captivated until the very end.

Ministry became the most influential band in popularizing industrial dance music, paving the way for future acts like Nine Inch Nails and Combichrist. For over 40 years, Al Jourgensen has released a series of groundbreaking Ministry albums that featured distorted guitars and some of the heaviest electronic beats ever heard. The band’s fusion of electronic and heavy metal elements allowed them to inject industrial music into mainstream culture and single-handedly jumpstart an entire musical movement in the process. Al Jourgensen took a genre that was once considered fringe and brought it onto radio stations across the country, giving it unprecedented exposure.

Industrial rock band Filter will be celebrating their 30th anniversary this year! Honoring their bold sound and success frontman RIchard Patrick has achieved over the past three decades. The band was created by vocalist and primary member Richard Patrick in 1993, who had previously been a guitarist with Nine Inch Nails during the ‘Pretty Hate Machine’ and ‘Broken’ EP eras.

Filter’s discography includes seven albums, as well as several EPs and live releases. Their most successful album to date is 1995’s Short Bus, which spawned the massive hit singles “Hey Man Nice Shot”. While 1999’s “Take a Picture” scorched the Billboard charts. The group’s most recent full-length album,” Crazy Eyes”, was released in 2016 on Wind-up Records. As the latest Filter singles “Thoughts and Prayers”, “Murica”, “For the Beaten” dived deep into political territory. On Saturday, September 24th 2022, Richard Patrick reunited with Nine Inch Nail’s frontman Trent Reznor at the sold out NIN/Ministry/Nitzer Ebb Blossom Music Center concert. And Mr. Patrick was even able to perform “Hey Man Nice Shot” with Nine Inch Nails at the extravagant event.
