The American Idol rocker’s still going strong, obviously, as he recently announced the beginning of his upcoming tour featuring the multi-platinum selling third album “Break the Spell” by 19 Recordings/RCA Records. That’s Chris Daughtry for you, rockin’ it out as always. Isn’t it any wonder why he didn’t win American Idol from way back?

Still, it seems as if he really didn’t need the Idol crown. I repeat: multi-platinum. ‘Nuff said. Look for the start of this tour hitting the ground on March 20, right in Buffalo, NY. April 30 will be the ending date in New York City. Details about the stops in between? Check here for the goods.

Obviously band members as well — guitarists Josh Steely and Brian Craddock, bass guitarist Josh Paul, and drummer Robin Diaz — are pretty jazzed to bring some good ol’ Daughtry rock ‘n’ roll into the mix of the new year, and you shall be, too. But that’s not all….

Apparently, Daughtry’s also welcoming special guest along for the ride: Nashville’s very own pop rock group SafetySuit. Talk about adding fuel to the rock ‘n’ roll fire. It was hot enough with Daughtry on stage. Be prepared to feel the heat….

Of course, Daughtry’s not all fun and games with the hard rock scene. He actually has plans to promote charity on this new tour, featuring an initiative to battle the disease of malaria most prevalent in Africa. $1 from each ticket he sells will go right to the cause of “Malaria No More,” a non-profit dedicated to eradicating the horrible infection.

Rock on, Daughtry!

And speaking of tickets…. Wondering when you can find them? Good question — but I’ve got a good answer, too! Expect the tickets to show up around January 20th.

So get your wallets out. They’ll go fast. You don’t want to miss this tour — not at all.

Rockstar Mayhem Festival Tickets 2012

It’s been 2008 since Slipknot released an album but they’ve been tapped to headline Rockstar’s Mayhem Festival. The Des Moines, Iowa (wait, what?) troupe has been prolific since their formation in 1995. Spotify’s description of Slipknot’s music as a “mix of grinding, post-Korn alternative metal, Marilyn Mason-esque neo-shock rock and rap-metal” was instrumental into putting them into the forefront of the nu-metal explosions of the 90s. Probably more so than their music is Slipknot’s stage presence as they perform in industrial jump suits with horrifying and spooky masks. Each of the nine members loses his identity on stage and in lieu of a name, adopts a number, zero through eight.

Corey Taylor of Slipknot says “You knew we’d be back. Now, you know we’re coming. This will be a tour people will scarcely want to miss. It will definitely be a show to remember. Can’t wait to see the states again from behind a mask.”

The festival will visit 26 cities over five weeks. Not only will Slipknot headline, but so will legendary metal band Slayer and another band soon to be announced. These three bands will be supported by Anthrax, The Devil Wears Prada, As I Lay Dying, Asking Alexandria, Whitechapel, and High On Fire. A few of these bands will be on either the Vans Warped Tour 2012 or at Bamboozle 2012.

It’s that time of year again, boys and girls. Coachella always welcomes the new year by announcing their lineup. With two weekends with identical lineups in wonderful Indio, Coachella festival organizers are hoping there will be plenty of tickets to go around, averting last year’s near immediate sell-out of tickets. With such a wide swath of artists, you could potentially go to both weekends and have two entirely different experiences. Better start planning now, ’cause it’s a trek between the different stages. Check out the Coachella 2012 Lineup.
