ESP on MySpace: Are you our friend?
Starting September 18 in Rhode Island and running through 20 cities in the US and Canada, Children of Bodom are going to once again hit the road, and this time their tour is being brought to you by ESP, along with Spinefarm Records!
You may recall that earlier this year, Children of Bodom was touring with Lamb of God when frontman Alexi Laiho, in a tour bus mishap, broke his shoulder and had other injuries. He toughed it out for another ten shows (donʼt let anyone tell you Alexi isnʼt tough... most people would have been crying for their mamas halfway through one show holding a guitar on a broken shoulder). But eventually, he had to cut the tour short.
Fast forward a few months, with some time for his shoulder to heal, and Alexi -- along with the rest of Bodom -- are ready to hit the road again this fall, feeling stronger than ever! Since all the guitarists in Children of Bodom are ESP users (bassist Henkka T. Blacksmith and Roope Latvala, along with Alexi), we got together with Bodomʼs label Spinefarm Records and decided to put our sponsorship behind this whole leg of the tour.
You can visit https://tixx1.artistarena.com/childrenofbodom/ to pre-order tickets to a show coming to your town, or to purchase a special VIP package with a concert ticket, meet ʻn greet pass, autographed poster and the new Bodom CD.
