BURBANK, CA. (Warner Bros. Records) - The final itinerary for the "Taste Of Chaos" tour has been set. The tour begins in Orlando, FL, on February 18, 2005, and finishes in Mesa, AZ, on April 4. Brought to you by Samsung, the tour features a diverse and impressive line-up of young rock bands. Set to participate are The Used, My Chemical Romance, Killswitch Engage, Senses Fail, A Static Lullaby,
Saosin and Underoath, in addition to many surprise guests along the way.
The newly announced "Acoustic Stage" complements the force of the main stage with an equally impressive line-up this year: Opiate For The Masses, Bleed the Dream, and Nicky P will share the stage along with local musicians chosen through a unique partnership with MySpace.com (see www.myspace.com/tasteofchaos for more details).
"Taste Of Chaos" offers fans a unique opportunity to arrive early and participate in numerous activities: playing the latest video games, checking out acoustic band performances, attending autograph signings with their favorite bands, and taking part in a host of additional fan interactive activities to be announced shortly.
The video channel, Fuse, and Revolver magazine have been announced as the tour's media partners. Covering both the electronic and print spectrum, they will be creating awareness leading up to the show's kick-off this February. Look for continued coverage of the tour throughout the run, as well as a tour special from Fuse following the tour's completion.
Aside from some of the best live music on two stages, "Taste Of Chaos" will also feature a midway of sorts, which will focus on activities and fun to enhance the fan experience. In development of that area, "Taste Of Chaos" creators, Kevin Lyman (Vans Warped Tour), John Reese (Freeze Management), Paul Gomez (Freeze Management) and Darryl Eaton (CAA) are assembling a group of tour partners (to be announced early next year) to assist in the tour's commitment to offer value, excitement and activities to the already terrific line-up of musical acts.
The multi-artist, multi-media traveling extravaganza that is the "Taste Of Chaos" will hit 36 cities during its run (see dates below).
