AS I LAY DYING:
NORTH AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN FALL TOUR DATES ANNOUNCED
NATIONALLY TELEVISED PERFORMANCE
SATURDAY, AUGUST 7 AT THE MALOOF MONEY CUP
NOMINATED FOR A SAN DIEGO MUSIC AWARD
FOR BEST HARD ROCK ALBUM
Grammy®-nominated metal group AS I LAY DYING has just announced a new set of fall tour dates in North America and Europe. In support of their latest release THE POWERLESS RISE–which debuted on the Billboard Top 200 chart at #10–the band will kick off the run September 14 in El Paso, TX with support from All That Remains, Unearth, and Carnifex. The tour will take the band down south, through the northeast, before making its way west through Canada, wrapping up October 11 in Chico, CA. AS I LAY DYING will then end the year with shows throughout Europe (see below for full tour dates).
AS I LAY DYING–NICK HIPA (guitar), TIM LAMBESIS (vocals), JORDAN MANCINO (drums), PHIL SGROSSO (guitar) and JOSH GILBERT (bass)–just wrapped the "Cool Tour" with Underoath, Between the Buried and Me, Blessthefall, The Acacia Strain, Architects, Cancer Bats, and War of Ages in San Francisco August 1. In a live review from the 7/31 Los Angeles date, Louie Bones of BigWheelMagazine.com said, “As I Lay Dying hit the stage to an intro song that reminded me of an epic war scene from a movie, it set the tone for what was to come. The 4000 maximum capacity crowd howled in excitement as the 5 members of As I Lay Dying broke into the set opener ‘94 Hours.’ The bone shattering bass drum was felt by all across the floor and up into the Palladium’s balconies. It was similar to an earthquake set to musical rhythm and growled along to…Fans had waited all day for this and they were not let down by any means as As I Lay Dying tore through the Palladium relentlessly late into the night.”
Prior to the fall tour, AS I LAY DYING will be performing this Saturday, August 7 as part of the Maloof Money Cup presented by Vans which airs live on FUEL TV. The MMC–the world’s premiere showcase for amateur and professional skateboarding–returns to Orange County for a third straight year August 4-8 (during the 2010 OC Fair) and will award nearly $450,000 in cash and prizes in four professional U.S. championship competitions: the VOLCOM Street Pro, Women’s Pro Street, Carl’s Jr. Pro Vert Championships and the World Industries Amateur Championships. More than 25 bands will perform including Lil’ Jon, Ludacris, YelaWolf and others. Tickets are on sale now at all Ticketmaster locations or at the OC Fair & Event Center Box Office at the Pacific Amphitheatre. For more information go to www.maloofmoneycup.com.
In other exciting news, the San Diego-based band has been nominated for a San Diego Music Award for Best Hard Rock Album with THE POWERLESS RISE.
