To mark the 40th anniversary of the release of their first album, W.A.S.P. will play the entire classic metal album from top to bottom on their North American tour this fall.
Titled Album ONE Alive!, the 39-city run kicks off on October 26 in San Luis Obispo, California. After making stops across North America, the tour will wrap up on December 14 at the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles.
August 17, 2024, marks the 40th anniversary of the release of W.A.S.P.’s self-titled debut album. It became a central piece of the 80s metal scene and remains one of the best metal debut albums of all time.
W.A.S.P. lead vocalist Blackie Lawless says, “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.”
Along with bassist Mike Duda and lead guitarist Doug Blair, whose tenures in the band are 29 and 26 years respectively, W.A.S.P. will be joined by long-time drummer Aquiles Priester.
The general on sale will begin on May 31 at 10 AM local time at WASPnation.com.
W.A.S.P. will be offering VIP tickets that give fans a chance to meet Blackie Lawless, get a personal photo with Blackie, autographs and take part in a very personal Q&A with Blackie. VIP tickets can be purchased at https://waspnation.myshopify.com
