Vocalist Corey Taylor had this to say about the tour:
“It feels good to be coming back for an extensive tour of Europe and the UK. No matter how many times we come there, it always feels like we can never get enough, nor play ALL the cities we want to. But one thing’s for certain: the audiences are ALWAYS some of the best in the world.”
Special guests in the form of metal giants Behemoth join them on this tour
